Title IX/Sexual Misconduct

Boston University is committed to maintaining a safe and welcoming environment that is free of harassment and discrimination against any individual on the basis of race, color, natural or protective hairstyle, religion, sex (including that based on sex stereotypes, sex characteristics, pregnancy or related conditions, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression and marital or parental status), age (40 or older), national origin (including shared ancestry and ethnic characteristics and citizenship/residency in a country with a dominant religion or distinct religious identity), ethnicity, physical or mental disability, genetic information, or because of military service or veteran status. Community members have the right to learn, work and thrive in a safe, and supportive environment free from harassment, discrimination, and retaliation. The University complies with all state and federal discrimination laws, including Title IX of the Higher Education Amendments of 1972, the federal law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs and activities.

The BU Equal Opportunity Office (EOO) is ready to support students who are experiencing harassment and discrimination, including but not limited to conduct covered by Title IX. We encourage students to review the EOO website for the most up to date resources, including the list of confidential resources on campus, the incident report form, and possible supportive measures.
