Purpose
University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis (UHSP) adheres to all federal, state, and local civil rights laws prohibiting discrimination and harassment in employment and education. UHSP does not discriminate in its admissions practices, employment practices, or educational programs or activities on the basis of age, color, disability, ethnicity, race, sex, genetic information, national origin, pregnancy or related conditions, religion, military status or other protected class. As a recipient of federal financial assistance for education activities, UHSP is required by Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX) to ensure that all of its education programs and activities do not discriminate on the basis of sex. Sex includes sex, sex stereotypes, sex characteristics, gender identity, sexual orientation, and pregnancy or related conditions. Discrimination and harassment on the basis of these covered protected classes is prohibited under UHSP Policy, including sex-based harassment, sexual assault, dating and domestic violence, stalking, quid pro quo harassment, hostile environment harassment, disparate treatment, and disparate impact.
UHSP also prohibits retaliation against any person opposing discrimination or harassment or participating in any internal or external investigation or complaint process related to allegations of discrimination or harassment under the policy.
Any person may report discrimination (whether the person reporting is alleged to have experienced the conduct) in person, by mail, by telephone, by video, or by email, using the contact information listed in the policy.
Questions regarding Title IX, including its application and/or concerns about noncompliance, should be directed to the EEO/504/ADA/Title IX Coordinator.
