If you experience harassment, abuse, assault, or any other kind of violation during a TUF event, or if someone who has engaged in such behavior and is adversely affecting your participation at the event, or for any other reason you need support, please report this to a TUF officer. When a decision needs to be made to give 'benefit of the doubt' to someone who was/has been engaged in harassment, abuse, assault, the preference will be to support the survivor. Decisions will be made in accordance to the wishes of the victim. TUF will immediately ban the perpetrator of harassment and then abide by the wishes of the victim by not involving the University or police unless desired by the survivor. If you are asked to leave the event in accordance with this policy, please do so immediately or you will be removed. TUF is a safe space where there is to be absolutely no harassment, racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or violence of any kind. Those failing to abide by this policy will be promptly removed and banned from further events. This applies everyone, including officers and dues-paying members. We want to be welcoming and engaging, and we encourage everyone to be proactive in creating an atmosphere where the safety of others is validated. In this spirit, TUF is survivor centric and survivor oriented, and violence, abuse, sexual assault and discrimination will not be tolerated. Everyone entering TUF events are asked to be aware of their language and behavior, and to think about whether it might be harmful to others. By entering TUF, and/or participating in TUF events and activities, you agree to abide by the following guidelines. If you experience harassment, abuse, or sexual assault, or if a perpetrator of sexual violence is interfering with your participation or presence at an event or in a space, please approach a TUF officer talking to in person or via email. They are here to help with any conflicts arising from the violation of our policies. We welcome the continuing discussion about and improvement of this policy.
