Loyola University provides equal opportunities in education without regard to, and does not discriminate on the basis of, age, color, disability, family responsibilities, familial status, gender identity or gender expression, marital status, national origin, personal appearance, political affiliation, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, source of income, veteran’s status, or any other factor prohibited by law. | ||
Practicing respect for others is an important part of education. | ||
Each member of our course has a responsibility to create an environment in which all may flourish. | ||
|
||
An additional note on names and gender pronouns: | ||
using appropriate names and gender pronouns honors and affirms individuals of all gender identities and gender expressions. | ||
Using appropriate names and gender pronouns honors and affirms individuals of all gender identities and gender expressions. | ||
Misgendering and heteronormative language excludes the experiences of individuals whose identities may not fit the gender binary, and/or who may not identify with the sex they were assigned at birth. | ||
During our first class, as we introduce ourselves, you may choose to share your name and gender pronouns. | ||
If you do not wish to be called by the name listed on the roster, please inform us. | ||
|
||
If you wish, please share your gender pronouns with me and the class when you introduce yourself, on your name placard, and/or on your Zoom profile. | ||
If you prefer to introduce yourself by name only, without pronouns, that is also fine. | ||
If you do not wish to be called by the name that appears on the class roster or attendance sheet, please let me know privately and I will work to honor your wishes. | ||
The goal is to create an affirming environment for all students. | ||
|
||
By giving my pronouns as "he | they", I mean to leave you free to use the pronouns that come naturally to you in reference to me. | ||
By giving my pronouns as "he | any", I mean to leave you free to use the pronouns that come naturally to you in reference to me. | ||
The pipe character means "or". |

As an instructor, I am a Responsible Campus Partner ("RCP") under Loyola's [Comprehensive Policy and Procedures for Addressing Discrimination, Sexual Misconduct, and Retaliation](https://www.luc.edu/comprehensivepolicy/) (available at [www.luc.edu/equity](http://www.luc.edu/equity)). | ||
While my goal is for you to be able to engage fully and authentically with our course material through class discussions and written work, I also want to be transparent that as a RCP I am required to report certain disclosures of sexual misconduct (including sexual assault, sexual harassment, intimate partner and/or domestic violence, and/or stalking) to the [Office for Equity & Compliance](http://www.luc.edu/equity) ("OEC"). As the University's [Title IX](http://www.luc.edu/titleix) office, the OEC coordinates the University's response to reports and complaints of sexual misconduct (as well as discrimination of any kind) to ensure students' rights are protected. | ||
|
||
As an instructor, I also have an obligation under Illinois law to report disclosures of or suspected instances of child abuse or neglect (<https://www.luc.edu/hr/legal-notices/mandatedreportingofchildabuseandneglect/>). | ||
|
||
The University maintains such reporting requirements to ensure that any student who experiences sexual/gender-based violence receives accurate information about available resources and support. | ||
Such reports **will not generate a report to law enforcement** (no student will ever be forced to file a report with the police). | ||
Additionally, the University's resources and supports are available to all students even if a student chooses that they do not want any other action taken. | ||
If you have any questions about this policy, you are encouraged to contact the OEC at <equity@luc.edu> or 773-508-7766. | ||
|
||
If you ever wish to speak with a **confidential** resource regarding gender-based violence, I encourage you to call [The Line](https://www.luc.edu/wellness/gender-basedviolence/advocacyline/) at 773-494-3810. The Line is staffed by confidential advocates from 8:30am-5pm M-F and 24 hours on the weekend when school is in session. | ||
Advocates can provide support, talk through your options (medical, legal, LUC reporting, safety planning, etc.), and connect you with resources as needed -- *without* generating a report or record with the OEC. More information about The Line can be found at [luc.edu/wellness](https://www.luc.edu/wellness/). |
