If you knew that a female co-worker was being sexually harassed

4. great job! one point of danger though --

while i think you did the right thing to speak up, there are some dangers there.

in particular, you're in a very awkward situation if you specifically identify someone as a harasser based on second-hand information if they won't back you up. you're also potentially placing *them* in an awkward situation if they don't want to face their own risks.

that said, again, i think you did the right thing to speak up and the school did the right thing by at least having a special non-harassment meeting (this should be an annual thing anyway).

anyway, too late now but for what it's worth, i would have suggested to avoid specifically naming the harasser and certainly the victims. it's enough to say you've heard problems and think we need more formal training in non-harassment.
