Test Your Understanding: Beyond Scenario "Freaky Fred" [Answer]

Beyond Scenario "Freaky Fred": False.


Fred is not entitled to a defense provided by the College because, even though the offending conduct took place at work, sexual harassment is generally not considered "within the course and scope of one's employment." Fred will have to hire and pay for his own lawyer and, if the jury finds that he sexually harassed Mary, he will have to pay the resulting judgment out of his own pocket.
