Central Michigan University's Board of Trustees adopted the following Nondiscrimination Policy in December 1997.
Central Michigan University is an affirmative action/equal opportunity institution. It encourages diversity and provides equal
opportunity in education, employment, all of its programs, and the use of its facilities. It is committed to protecting the
constitutional and statutory civil rights of persons connected with the
University.
Unlawful acts of discrimination or harassment by members of the campus community are prohibited.

In addition, even if not illegal, acts are prohibited if they discriminate against any university community
member(s) through
inappropriate limitation of or access to, or participation in, educational, employment, athletic, social, cultural or other university
activities on the basis of age, color, disability, gender, height, marital status, national origin, political persuasion, race, religion,
sexual orientation, veteran status or weight. Limitations are lawful if they are directly related to a legitimate
University purpose, are
required by law, are lawfully required by a grant or contract between the
University and the state or federal government, or
address domestic partner benefits.
The President is directed to promulgate practices and procedures to realize this policy. The procedures shall include the
identification of an office to which persons are encouraged to report instances of discrimination and a process for the investigation
and resolution of these reports/complaints.
