“Promoting a Respectful Campus Community,” is a University-wide anti-harassment training program for faculty and staff.It is one tool in our ongoing efforts to work with you to foster a respectful and inclusive community.
At GeorgetownUniversity, we take pride in the diversity of our campus community. We have policies (http://ideaa.georgetown.edu/policies) that reflect this commitment and adhere to local and federal laws designed to prevent harassment and discrimination. “Promoting a Respectful Campus Community” supplements existing efforts to build awareness of these issues within our community. This program provides valuable information for all who work at Georgetown about our legal rights and responsibilities as educators, supervisors and colleagues.
All faculty and staff are expected to complete this program, which is designed to promote a shared understanding of these important issues. Should you have questions about this program, you may contact the Offices of Institutional Diversity, Equity and Affirmative Action (IDEAA) or Human Resources, which are coordinating this important initiative. You may also visit http://ideaa.georgetown.edu/parcc for more information.
I am grateful to Vice President and General Counsel Jane Genster, Vice President for Institutional Diversity and Equity Rosemary Kilkenny and Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer Mary Anne Mahin for their leadership in this effort and deeply appreciate the many faculty and staff who have helped us to develop a program appropriate for our community. Their partnership over the past few years has been invaluable as we have put this program together.
Thank you in advance for taking part in this important program and helping to foster a welcoming, supportive environment at Georgetown. You have my very best wishes.
