Civil Rights and Non-Discrimination Anti-Harassment
The University of Georgia (the “University”) is committed to maintaining a fair and respectful environment for living, work, and study. To that end, and in accordance with federal and state law, University System of Georgia (“USG”) policy, and University policy, the University prohibits harassment of or discrimination against any person because of race, color, sex (including sexual harassment and pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity or national origin, religion, age, genetic information, disability, or veteran status by any member of the University Community (as defined below) on campus, in connection with a University program or activity, or in a manner that creates a hostile environment for any member of the University Community. Incidents of harassment and discrimination will be met with appropriate disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal or expulsion from the University.
In accordance with Georgia law (O.C.G.A. § 50-1-12), whenever enforcing any law or regulation that prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, or national origin, the University of Georgia Equal Opportunity Office considers the working definition of antisemitism and the contemporary examples of antisemitism adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) on May 26, 2016, and incorporated by reference in Presidential Executive Order 13899, issued December 11, 2019. The IHRA working definition can be found at www.holocaustremembrance.com/resources/working-definition-antisemitism.
