The Xxxxxxx and/or appropriate Xxxx may, upon request of the Department Personnel Committee, the Department Chair or Head, the individual concerned, or the union representatives, join in the discussions about resolving the matter. Informal attempts at resolution shall not extend beyond thirty days without the written agreement of the individual concerned and the Xxxxxxx.

Assist in follow-up investigation, interviewing the accused, witnesses, and supervisor, as appropriate, and recommending the disposition of the complaint. The immediate supervisor or other appropriate supervisor/administrator will review the factual information collected to determine whether the alleged conduct constitutes sexual harassment, giving consideration to the record as a whole and the totality of the circumstances, including the nature of the sexual advances and the context in which the alleged incidents occurred, and will take and/or authorize appropriate action.
