We (your professors) are committed to providing an educational experience that is free of harassment and intimidation for everyone in this course\u2014regardless of gender identity and expression, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, nationality, religion (or lack thereof), or technology choices. We will not tolerate any form of harassment and\/or discriminatory, oppressive, suppressive, or violent behavior.<\/span><\/p>\n

Harassment<\/span><\/i> may include, but is not limited to, offensive verbal comments, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption, inappropriate or non-consensual physical contact, unwelcome sexual attention, and\/or refusing to accept the limits or boundaries set by another participant in our classroom. We further define <\/span>suppressive<\/span><\/i> behavior as any sort of communication that stifles or belittles another. Participants who have been asked to stop any behavior are expected to comply immediately. We expect all of the participants in our classroom community to adhere to this code of conduct\u2013including us, the Professors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Debate and free exchange of ideas is encouraged, but we will not tolerate harassment. Qualities intrinsic to a person\u2019s being are not up for debate. If you\u2019ve crossed the line between free expression and harassment by accident, then apologize, address the harm done (a.k.a. repair) and move on. When in need of help, approach an instructor.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If someone engages in harassing behavior, we may take any action deemed appropriate in the Carnegie Mellon University Policy against Sexual Harassment and Sexual Assault. If you experience or witness harassment, threatening behavior, suppressive behavior, or have any other concerns, we encourage you to speak up, say something, and\/or let us know immediately.<\/span><\/p>\n

Carnegie Mellon University is firmly committed to intellectual honesty, freedom of inquiry and expression, and respect for the dignity of each individual. Acts of discriminatory harassment or intimidation by a student directed toward any member of the community are inconsistent with this commitment and will not be tolerated. Consistent with the University\u2019s Statement of Assurance, prohibited acts include harassment and intimidation motivated by discriminatory intent based on race, color, national origin, sex, handicap or disability, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, creed, ancestry, belief, veteran status, or genetic information. Any such harassment or intimidation of or by a student should be referred to the Dean of Student Affairs for resolution.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Students are asked to acknowledge this Code of Conduct by signing our course <\/span>Welcome Form and FERPA Waiver<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Inclusivity Statement<\/b><\/h3>\n

It is our intent that students from all diverse backgrounds and perspectives be well served by this course, and that the diversity that students bring to this class be viewed as a resource, strength and benefit. It is our intent to present activities that accommodate and value a diversity of gender, sexuality, disability, age, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, race, and culture. We will gladly honor your request to address you by the pronouns and name you specify.<\/span><\/p>\n

We commit to make individual arrangements to address disabilities or religious needs (e.g. religious events in conflict with class meetings). Please advise us of these preferences and needs early in the semester so that we may make appropriate changes to our plans and records.<\/span><\/p>\n
