In light of the recent passage of NC House Bill 2 (HB2), members of the UNC Chapel Hill Department of Asian Studies affirm our commitment to fostering a welcoming and inclusive environment. We are fully committed to the University’s Policy Statement on Non-Discrimination, which prohibits discrimination and harassment based on “age, color, disability, gender, gender expression, gender identity, genetic information, national origin, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, or veteran status.” (See the full university policy at http://sexualassaultanddiscriminationpolicy.unc.edu/about/our-policy/.) We also endorse the protections encoded in Federal Title VII and Title IX regulations.
