Diversity
The School of Communication at The Ohio State University embraces and maintains an
environment that respects diverse traditions, heritages, experiences, and people. Our
commitment to diversity moves beyond mere tolerance to recognizing, understanding,
and welcoming the contributions of diverse groups and the value group members
possess as individuals. In our School, the faculty, students, and staff are dedicated to
building a tradition of diversity with principles of equal opportunity, personal respect,
and the intellectual interests of those who comprise diverse cultures.
Title IX
Title IX makes it clear that violence and harassment based on sex and gender are Civil
Rights offenses subject to the same kinds of accountability and the same kinds of
support applied to offenses against other protected categories (e.g., race). If you or
someone you know has been sexually harassed or assaulted, you may find the
appropriate resources at http://titleix.osu.edu or by contacting the Ohio State Title IX
Academic Misconduct
It is the responsibility of the Committee on Academic Misconduct to investigate or
establish procedures for the investigation of all reported cases of student academic
misconduct. The term “academic misconduct” includes all forms of student academic
misconduct wherever committed; illustrated by, but not limited to, cases of plagiarism
and dishonest practices in connection with examinations. Instructors shall report all
instances of alleged academic misconduct to the committee (Faculty Rule 3335-5-487).
