Product Description
Judith Brandenburg describes how schools can confront sexual harassment within their own communities and how they can become models that educate students to deal with sexual harassment in the larger social setting. In addition to explaining the theoretical, psychosocial understanding of sexual harassment, she gives schools and colleges the bases to comply with the law quickly and effectively while developing long-term plans of action. The book covers all educational levels and gives special focus to sexual harassment occurring during off-campus activities and to the problem of peer harassment. It guides the reader through existing policies, procedures and educational programmes from around the country, and lists case sudies based on the author's actual experiences. Concluding this work is an annotated guide to print and media tools for change and thorough answers to the ten most frequently asked questions about sexual harassment and schools, such as: how do I get my school to take the issue of sexual harassment seriously?; what are the risks or possible costs to the person bringing a complaint of sexual harassment?; how can a school determine whether it is being effective in preventing sexual harassment and a hostile environment? ; and how can we prohibit sexual harassment without infringing on people's privacy and freedom?
