Equity Compliance & Title IX

Equal Employment Opportunity Statement:

Notice of Non-Discrimination & Anti-Harassment

樱花动漫 has a long-standing commitment to equal opportunity and affirmative action. We apply every good faith effort in achieving nondiscrimination and equality of opportunity in employment and in all spheres of academic life.

All University-wide decisions with regard to faculty, staff and students are based on equitable and equally applied standards of excellence. Non-Discrimination & Anti-Harassment procedures have been established, both as a legal obligation under applicable law and as a visible and formal expression of institutional policy.

The University's policy is designed to insure that recruitment, hiring, training, promotion, and all other personnel actions take place, and all programs and activities involving students, both academic and non-academic, are administered without regard to race, religion, creed, color, national origin, sex, age, disability, veteran or disabled veteran status, genetic predisposition/carrier status, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, citizenship status, sexual and other reproductive health decisions or decision making or any other protected classes under the law. In addition, this policy is designed to maintain a work and academic environment free of harassment and intimidation.

Unlawful harassment includes harassment based on race, religion, color, creed, age, national origin or ancestry, sex, marital status, physical or mental disability, veteran or disabled veteran status, genetic predisposition/carrier status, sexual orientation, gender identity, sexual and other reproductive health decisions or decision making, or any other basis made unlawful by any applicable law, ordinance, or regulation.

Unlawful harassment may be found in a single episode, as well as in persistent behavior. Sexual harassment (and sexual assault) is a form of unlawful harassment.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), defines sexual harassment as: "Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitute sexual harassment when (1) submission to such conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of an individual's employment, (2) submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as the basis for employment decisions affecting such individual, or (3) such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's work performance or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working environment."

樱花动漫 is committed to maintaining an environment for learning and teaching that is free of unlawful harassment. The University has adopted a policy of zero tolerance with respect to unlawful harassment as being antithetical both to the academic values of the University and the need for a work environment that is free from even the appearance of unlawful harassment or coercion.  The University strives to provide a place of work and study free of harassment, intimidation or exploitation.  Where harassment has occurred, the University will act promptly to stop the harassment, prevent its recurrence, and discipline and/or take other appropriate action against those responsible. Unlawful harassment in any form is a violation of University policy. 

The responsibility for the University's affirmative action/equal opportunity and anti-harassment policy lies with all associate and assistant deans, chairpersons, department heads, directors, administrators, managers and supervisors in their areas of responsibility and requires the commitment of the entire University community. Administrative and investigative responsibility has been assigned to the Senior Director of Talent Management & Equity Compliance, Renee Coker.

Renee Coker and the University's Title IX Coordinator, Chaim Nissel, Psy.D. are responsible for ensuring University compliance with Title IX of the Higher Education Act of 1972, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education program and activities. 

In addition to the Title IX Coordinator or a Deputy Title IX Coordinator, inquiries regarding Title IX may be directed to the United States Department of Education鈥檚 Office of Civil Rights (鈥淥CR鈥). This agency may be contacted as follows:
