Reviews

[A]n informative and useful guidebook for multiple constituencies. These constituencies include university administrators and faculty, human resource specialists in nonacademic organizations, and advanced undergraduate and graduate students. In my role as a university faculty member, I found their work to be especially useful for understanding how mission can drive sexual harassment policy in academic organizations and for offering suggestions for teaching students about sexual harassment.
