All members of the Reuben College community have the right to expect professional behaviour from others, and a corresponding responsibility to behave professionally towards others. Reuben College does not tolerate harassment, bullying or victimisation in any form. You can read the Reuben Policy and Procedure on Harassment here.
The University’s Single Comprehensive Source of Information sets out the University’s approach to preventing and responding to harassment and sexual misconduct involving students. It brings together policies, procedures, guidance and key information relevant to both students and staff, and can be used alongside and in conjunction with College guidance and support.
Please find the university guide on Understanding harassment and sexual misconduct: What you need to know here.
The College has a number of Harassment Advisors (some of whom are fellows and some are administrative staff) and you're welcome to speak with whoever you're most comfortable with. The harassment does not necessarily have to have taken place in College. You can also approach an Advisor outside the College via the EDU Harassment Line, or can contact Advisors who are BAME, LGBTQ+, or who are experts in certain areas via https://edu.admin.ox.ac.uk/support.
All Harassment Advisers are ready to advise, in complete confidence, on any problems which might arise from alleged or apparent breaches of policy. Importantly, a chat with a Harassment Advisor does not automatically begin a formal complaint. The advisors are there to confidentially listen to your experiences, discuss your options, and provide support with any actions you decide to take.
