Nondiscrimination Policy
The commitment of the University of Illinois to the most fundamental principles of academic freedom, equality of opportunity, and human dignity requires that decisions involving students and employees be based on individual merit and be free from invidious discrimination in all its forms.
It is the policy of the University of Illinois not to engage in discrimination or harassment against any person because of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, age, marital status, disability, sexual orientation, unfavorable discharge from the military, or status as a disabled veteran or veteran of the Vietnam era and to comply with all federal and state nondiscrimination, equal opportunity, and affirmative action laws, orders, and regulations. This nondiscrimination policy applies to admissions, employment, access to, and treatment in university programs and activities. Complaints of invidious discrimination prohibited by university policy are to be resolved within existing university procedures.
Sexual Harassment Policy
Sexual harassment is defined by law and includes any unwanted sexual gesture, physical contact, or statement that is offensive, humiliating, or an interference with required tasks or career and academic opportunities at the university.
The University of Illinois will not tolerate sexual harassment of students or employees and will take action to provide remedies when such harassment is discovered. The university environment must be free of sexual harassment in work and study.
In order to assure that the university is free of sexual harassment, appropriate sanctions will be imposed on offenders in a case-by-case manner. The university will respond to every complaint of sexual harassment.
A person who wishes to secure information about sexual harassment or about dealing with its consequences should contact: The Office for Access and Equity (MC 602), Room 717 Marshfield Building, 809 South Marshfield Avenue, Chicago, Illinois 60612-7207; telephone: 312-996-8670.
