Attention faculty, please include the following (3) statements in your syllabi.

The American with Disabilities (ADA) Procedures  

 

Howard University is dedicated to fostering an accessible, inclusive, and supportive learning environment for all students. We are committed to ensuring that students with documented disabilities receive equal access to all course activities. If you require accommodations, please reach out to the Office of Student Accessibility (OSA) to discuss your needs in a confidential setting. The OSA is responsible for determining reasonable accommodations in both classroom and clinical settings. Please note that accommodations should be requested at the beginning of each semester and cannot be applied retroactively. To request accommodations, contact the OSA via email at accessibility@howard.edu or visit https://studentaffairs.howard.edu/Accessibility for more information.  

COVID-19 Statement for Fall 2022 

 

The indoor mask mandate has been lifted on campus for all faculty, staff, students, and visitors, with a notable exception like patient settings. Faculty may continue to require masks for individual classes. In those classes where a face mask is required, students will be directed to leave the classroom if a face mask is not worn properly to cover the nose and mouth. Any student who refuses or fails to comply with a specific classroom requirement to wear a face mask, and any other measures the University advances for the safety and protection of the Howard Community, will constitute a violation of the University’s Student Code of Conduct and could result in sanctions up to and including expulsion from the University.

Statement on Sex and Gender-Based Discrimination, Harassment and Violence  

 

Howard University’s Policy Prohibiting Sex and Gender-Based Discrimination, Sexual Misconduct and Retaliation (aka, the Title IX Policy) prohibits discrimination, harassment, and violence based on sex, gender, gender expression, gender identity, sexual orientation, pregnancy, or marital status. With the exception of certain employees designated as confidential, note that all Howard University employees – including all faculty members – are required to report any information they receive regarding known or suspected prohibited conduct under the Title IX Policy to the Title IX Office (TitleIX@howard.edu or 202-806-2550), regardless of how they learn of it. For confidential support and assistance, you may contact the Interpersonal Violence Prevention Program (202-836-1401) or the University Counseling Service (202-806-7540). To learn more about your rights, resources, and options for reporting and/or seeking confidential support services (including additional confidential resources, both on and off campus), visit titleix.howard.edu.
