We have expectations concerning the behavior of each member of our community. We are individually and collectively responsible for our behavior and fully accountable for our actions.
We must take responsibility for own learning and awareness about racism, classism, heterosexism, religious oppression, and other forms of oppression.
Bigotry will not go unchallenged in our communities. No one has the right to malign another human being on the basis of race, gender, age, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, disability, or other personal characteristics.
We will not tolerate verbal or written abuse, threats,harassment, intimidation and violence against or by any member of our community. We do not accept alcohol or substance abuse as a rationale for such behavior. It is also not acceptable to claim that the behavior was "just a joke".
In order to promote a healthy community, each person should take the responsibility to identify and speak out against such behaviors as it occurs.
These community expectations are an integral part of the Diversity Development mission statement.
