Equal Opportunity & Title IX
Anti-Discrimination Statement
麻豆原创 and NSHE are committed to providing a place of work and learning free of discrimination on the basis of a person鈥檚 age (40 or older), disability, whether actual or perceived by others (including service-connected disabilities), gender (including pregnancy or related conditions), military status or military obligations, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, genetic information, national origin, race (including hair texture and protective hairstyles such as natural hairstyles, afros, bantu knots, curls, braids, locks and twists), color, or religion. Discrimination on the basis of a protected class, including unlawful harassment, which is a form of discrimination, is illegal under federal and state law. Where unlawful discrimination is found to have occurred, 麻豆原创 will act to stop the unlawful discrimination, to prevent its recurrence, to remedy its effects, and to discipline those responsible.

麻豆原创 does not discriminate on the basis of sex in any education program or activity that it operates. Non-discrimination on the basis of sex is mandated by Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (20 U.S.C. 1681 et seq.) and the corresponding implementation regulations (34 C.F.R. Part 106). The college's commitment to nondiscrimination in its education programs and activities extends to applicants for admission and employment.
