Policy on Prohibited Discrimination, Harassment, and Related Misconduct

This Policy prohibits discrimination and harassment on the basis of age, color, disability, gender, gender expression, gender identity, genetic information, national origin, race, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, or veteran status (collectively, “protected status” or “protected characteristics”). This prohibition includes discrimination and harassment based on the perception of an individual’s protected status, even if that perception is incorrect. The Policy also prohibits related misconduct, such as sexual assault, relationship violence, and stalking. This Policy applies to all operations of Duke University.

If you are in an emergency and need to speak to someone outside of regular business hours: Call Duke Police at 919-684-2444 or page the Dean on call (pager: 919-970-4169; or cell: 984-287-0300).

If you wish to report to the Chair anonymously, you can do so using the form below.

All reports will be taken seriously and will be investigated in a manner that preserves confidentiality (if desired, and to the extent possible). If necessary, the Department will forward the incident to the Duke Office of Institutional Equity for official reporting and investigation. You can also bypass the Department of Immunology and report directly to the Duke Office of Institutional Equity.
