United States Eighth Circuit

In hostile work environment claim, the complained-of conduct, while inappropriate, immature and unprofessional, did not cross the high threshold required to support a claim of sexual harassment. Plaintiff failed to make a prima facie case of retaliation, as the alleged retaliatory actions were not sufficiently adverse to be actionable.
