  • Physical contact and advances
  • A demand or request for sexual favours
  • Sexually coloured remarks
  • Any other unwelcome physical, verbal or non-verbal conduct of a sexual nature
• Behaviour such as this constitutes an action unbecoming of a student/staff member of the Institute and will attract appropriate disciplinary action.
