Faculty vote unanimously for bias and discrimination policy
The Academic Council has clarified policies and procedures with respect to discrimination and prejudice on campus with a new policy. According to Brooke Barnett, the senior fellow for diversity and global engagement in the Office of the President, those who have worked on creating the new policy want to stress that Elon now has policies for any form of harassment or discrimination, and the new policy clarifies the process for reporting incidents of harassment and discrimination. The Academic Council passed the handbook change in February, and in early March the faculty approved it unanimously. [quote]We have a process that is more fair, not just for the person who had an injustice done to them, but also to the person accused of that injustice.
