    Supreme Court decisions on sexual harassment, particularly in the Faragher case, have increased concerns about the nature of an acceptable policy and complaint mechanism. In that decision, issued on the same day, the Supreme Court ruled that, when there was no direct adverse job action involved, an affirmative defense against claims of supervisor harassment can be made.

    Argument for Tangible Detriment: The District court improperly granted summary judgment as a reasonable jury could find that Prufrock suffered a tangible detriment when he was denied tutoring and received the worst English grade of his college career after he rejected Crewel 's offer to "take care of things" for him if he was "a good boy".(DEP.)
