Office of Equity and Compliance
Mercer University is committed to maintaining a fair and respectful environment for living, work and study.
To that end, and in accordance with federal, state and local law and University policies, the University prohibits harassment of or discrimination against any person because of race, color, national or ethnic origin, disability, marital status, veteran status, sex (including pregnancy, child birth or a medical condition related to pregnancy or childbirth), sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, genetic information, age, or religion (except in limited circumstances where religious preference is permitted by law), or any other protected status or characteristic as defined by law.
To uphold the University’s values of fostering a climate of opportunity, mutual respect and understanding and striving for a campus that is absent of discrimination and harassment on the basis of a protected class named above, the Office of Equity and Compliance will address and remediate reported forms of discrimination and sexual misconduct, and provide policies, training and education in an effort to prevent discrimination and sexual misconduct.
