UW-Madison opens probe into sexual harassment claims at plant

(AP) – University of Wisconsin-Madison is investigating allegations of sexual harassment brought by a female employee at a campus power plant against her male co-workers, including the plant superintendent.

University lawyers started the probe late last week after receiving a complaint by 31-year-old Amy Gabel alleging she has suffered harassment during her two years at the UW Walnut Street Power Plant and retaliation for complaining, UW spokesman Brian Mattmiller said Monday.
