Graduate Women, Sexual Harassment, and University Policy

When I personally was propositioned by a male faculty member, the man did not covertly try to use his position to pressure me. But I felt that he had taken advantage of my position as a grad student and as a T.A. After all, he could have served on future committees which would determine whether or not I received financial aid. He could also have tried to put damaging information in my departmental file and I, of course, could do nothing since the files were confidential (30, married, humanities).
