Conducting Class


Nondiscrimination

The University of California, in accordance with applicable federal and state law and university policy, does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability, age, medical condition (cancer related), ancestry, marital status, citizenship, sexual orientation, or status as a Vietnam era veteran or special disabled veteran. The university also prohibits sexual harassment. This nondiscrimination policy covers admission, access and treatment in university programs and activities.

If you have any questions regarding student-related nondiscrimination policies, contact the Ombudsman's Office, 255 Administration Building, Irvine, CA 92697, (949) 824-7256.

Sexual Harassment

The University of California forbids acts of sexual harassment. Sexual harassment is a form of illegal sex discrimination. Harassment occurs when unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical contact of a sexual nature: 1) is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of an individual's educational status or employment; 2) has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's educational or work performance or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive educational or working environment; 3) is used as the basis for employment or academic decisions affecting the individual regardless of submission to or rejection of such conduct.

Any individual who believes that he or she has been sexually harassed should contact the Office of Equal Opportunity and Diversity at (949) 824-5594 regarding complaint or grievance procedures.

 

Privacy Notification

The state of California Information Practices Act of 1977 requires the university to provide the following information to individuals who are asked to supply information about themselves. All of the information requested on the application form, with the exception of the social security number, is required for processing enrollments in UC Irvine Extension courses and for future correspondence with applicants. Without the information, UC Irvine Extension cannot enroll applicants in any of its courses. When appropriate, the information will be made available for inspection by state and federal agencies. The University Extension Records Office, (949) 824-5418, maintains the requested information. You have a right to inspect university records containing the personal information requested application form.

Students with Disabilities

Disabled students frequently need special classroom and instructor accommodations. The Disability Services Center (DSC) is the UCI department that determines the appropriate accommodation(s) for a disabled student. It is the student's responsibility to go to DSC and obtain a Verification Letter enumerating the identified accommodations. It is also the student's responsibility to make you aware, as soon as possible, what those accommodations need to be for your classroom. You should ask for the student's Verification Letter. If a student does not have a Verification Letter, you should direct the student to contact the DSC at (949) 824-7494 or TDD: (949) 824-6272. As an Instructor for UCI Extension we do expect you to honor any reasonable accommodation request necessary for disabled students. For further information on your responsibilities in this area you may visit the DSC website www.disability.uci.edu or contact the Center via e-mail at dsc@uci.edu or telephone number (949) 824-7494.
