Ringling College of Art and Design (“Ringling” or “the College”) is committed to creating and maintaining a community in which students, faculty, and staff can work together in an atmosphere free from all forms of discrimination.
Specifically, every member of the College community should be aware that Ringling College is opposed to discrimination on the basis of sex, gender, gender expression, gender identity, and sexual orientation and that such behavior is prohibited by College policy. Such discrimination includes harassment on the basis of these traits, as well as sexual harassment, sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, and stalking.
Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972 (Title IX) is a Federal law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education, programs, or activities. It provides that no person shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any educational program or activity provided through the College.
This is not only the policy of the College, it is also the mandate under applicable federal and state laws and applies with regard to the College’s employment, admissions, academic programs, scholarship and loan programs, and other College administered programs.
