Michigan <\/strong>\u2013 A sexual harassment lawsuit was filed in July 2016 in Bay County Circuit Court alleging that an instructor at Delta College sexually harassed two students, MaCayla Jablonski and Emily Mason. The sexual harassment lawsuit was filed against Delta College and the instructor, Jonathan Brent Fonville.<\/p>\n In January 2015, both students enrolled in Fonville\u2019s introduction to psychology class. The sexual harassment lawsuit explained that the students were assigned to do a paper regarding their \u201cpersonal insecurities and mental disorders\u201d during the course. The following April, the instructor allegedly reached out to the students on social media.<\/p>\n According to Jablonski, Fonville also showed up at her job. After he made an appearance at her job, the students alleged that Fonville started communicating with them via text message. The sexual harassment lawsuit claims Fonville sent \u201covertly sexual and flirtatious text messages.\u201d Fonville\u2019s actions were definitely inappropriate for an employee and educational instructor at Delta College. The accused instructor should’ve aided the students in school and with their futures as opposed to engaging in sexual harassment.<\/p>\n Throughout the text messages the students alleged Fonville sent, they claimed he inquired about their personal dating lives. As the year progressed, the instructor became more open with his sexual harassment. The female students started to receive various web links leading to sexual websites displaying images of male private parts, according to the sexual harassment lawsuit.<\/p>\n Jablonski revealed that she received several \u201csexual messages\u201d on a popular social media site, Tumblr, that she genuinely suspects Fonville sent her. In addition to sexually harassing the students, the plaintiffs allege that Fonville attempted to sexually harass their social studies course instructor. After tolerating consistent sexual harassment from Fonville for months, the students filed an official sexual harassment report with the school officials. They also informed the dean of faculty and Delta\u2019s Title IX Equity Officer about Fonville\u2019s wrongdoings.<\/p>\n The students alleged Delta College \u201ctook inadequate measures to stop\u201d Fonville from sexually harassing them. Currently, the plaintiffs are seeking $25,000 in monetary damages for the emotional distress they experienced after their instructor disturbed their academic environment with hostility. The students claimed they were subjected to an \u201coffensive sex-based educational environment.\u201d The sexual harassment lawsuit alleged that Delta College violated Michigan\u2019s Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act of 1976, which prohibits discrimination in education and on the basis of sex amongst several protected classes.<\/p>\n In a statement, the defense attorney denied, \u201ceither Plaintiff has been discriminated against on the basis of their sex in the full utilization of benefits, services, activities or programs offered by the College.\u201d All of these activities took place in October along with a sexual harassment investigation into the sexual harassment claims. The results of the sexual harassment investigation disclosed that the sexual messages were a mutual activity that both parties engaged in.<\/p>\n The findings claim the sexual harassment via text messages was not unwanted or unwelcome, post the psychology course. According to the investigation\u2019s response, Fonville\u2019s appearance at Jablonski\u2019s job was merely a coincidence considering Fonville was allegedly unaware that the plaintiff was employed there.<\/p>\n According to the investigation report by Delta\u2019s Title IX coordinator, the previous investigation\u2019s findings did not match. Delta College revealed that Emily and MaCayla were great individuals with excellent credibility whereas Fonville maintained a different caliber and lower level of credibility. The Title IX investigation discovered that sexual harassment was present in the academic facility.<\/p>\n The plaintiffs\u2019 sexual harassment attorney is determined to prove Fonville\u2019s sexual harassment was unwanted by the plaintiffs. The sexual harassment lawsuit added, \u201cProfessors and teachers must understand affairs with students and sexual advances on students are just completely inappropriate.\u201d The defense attorney alleged Fonville\u2019s sexual misconduct did not interfere with the plaintiffs\u2019 academics since the sexual harassment took place \u201coutside of the time he was their instructor.\u201d Have you ever experienced sexual harassment at work in New York City, Miami, New Jersey, or Philadelphia?
