Sexual Harassment and Discrimination Policy 

Point Loma Nazarene University is committed to maintaining work, learning, and living environment that  is free from sex discrimination and does not engage in or tolerate discrimination on the basis of sex in its education programs and activities, including retaliation for asserting or otherwise participating in claims of sex discrimination. 

The university is also committed to providing a work, learning, and living environment that is free of sexual harassment, including retaliation for asserting or otherwise  participating in claims of sex harassment. 

In support of these commitments and to ensure compliance with Title IX, California SB493, and other laws and regulations, Point Loma Nazarene University has developed the Nondiscrimination and Anti-harassment Policy and Resolution Process to provide for prompt, fair, and impartial resolution of allegations of protected characteristic discrimination, harassment or allegations of retaliation. Allegations that meet the threshold of Title IX of the Education Amendments of  1972, 20 U.S.C. §1681 et seq., as updated in May 2020 ("Title IX"), specifically allegations of sexual harassment and sexual misconduct that occurred on Point Loma Nazarene University owned or managed property or at a Point Loma Nazarene University sponsored event, in the United States of America will follow the protocols outlined in the Title IX Grievance Process.
