Policy Against Intolerance

A member of the University community has received an offensive e-mail about Tuesday's attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

The campus community is reminded of the Official University Policy Against Intolerance, approved by the Board of Trustees, June 13, 1992.

The Board of Trustees denounces intolerance particularly that based on ethnicity, culture, religion, race or sexual orientation which interferes with those rights guaranteed by law, and insists that such conduct has no place in a community of learning. We also recognize the obligation of the University to protect the rights of free inquiry and expression, and nothing in the Resolution in Support of Pluralism or Policy Against Intolerance shall be construed or applied so as to abridge the exercise of rights under the Constitution of the United States and other Federal and State laws.
