FOR FULL CREDIT PER QUESTION – 1. Your college instructor is warm, friendly, and one of those people who touches others frequently on the arm or shoulder, and hugs them when they are sad. She is well-liked by students. After twenty years, she is shocked when the Dean informs her that a former student has complained that her frequent touches created a hostile work environment, and the student could not concentrate, explaining the poor grade this student got in the class. 2. A female student has asked a male student to stop asking her out on dates and to stop paying her compliments. He continues to sit next to her (she hasn’t moved her seat) and he stares at her throughout most of each class, but he has stopped talking to her. 3. A teacher notices that one of his students has a crush on him. Both are adults, and when they talk after class she has made it clear that she would like to date him. He tells her that they could get together to work on her academic standing, which has been slipping recently. During a tutoring session, his attraction to her grows stronger and they have sex. The teacher tells her that their relationship will not interfere with her grade. She gets a “C” in the class. 4. A construction worker whistles as an attractive woman walks by his construction site every day. The woman always quickens her pace to get past the building as fast as possible, but every once in a while she smiles a little, suggesting that she enjoys being found attractive. The worker’s buddy pokes him and says he could be putting the company at risk for a sexual harassment lawsuit, but the worker doesn’t think that’s likely to happen and continues to whistle at attractive women. 5. A female coworker asks a male coworker out for dinner. He says he does not want to go. The woman threatens to tell their supervisor that the man has been sexually harassing her if he does not accept her invitation.
