Syllabus Statement

Please find below language that can be incorporated into syllabus/syllabi:

All members of the University community have the right to learn and work in a safe environment free from all forms of harassment, including harassment on the basis of sex or gender. The University does not tolerate any form of discrimination or harassment (including sexual assault, dating and domestic violence, stalking)聽聽based on protected characteristics (e.g., race, disability, ethnicity, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, pregnancy, etc.) or related retaliation (i.e., Prohibited Conduct).

All faculty and Teaching Assistants are considered Mandatory Reporters by the University, which means that if they observe or learn of Prohibited Conduct, they are obligated to immediately share that information with the University鈥檚 Title IX Office. This obligation, grounded in law and policy, is designed to protect the safety of students and the broader University of Rochester community, as well as ensure that students receive information about available supportive measures and resolution options to enable them to make informed choices. Students who have been subjected to sexual harassment, including sexual assault, dating/domestic violence or stalking, have the right to receive academic, housing, transportation or other supportive measures, to receive counseling and health services and to make a report about such behavior to the University and to law enforcement.

• Contact the Title IX Office directly (titleix@rochester.edu or 585-275-1654), without sharing any personal information with me. For more information please visit
• If you are pregnant, have recently experienced childbirth, and/or have medical needs related to childbirth, please contact the Title IX Office for assistance.
