Rutgers University policy prohibits discrimination
and
harassment based upon race, religion, color, national origin, ancestry,
age,
sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, disability,
genetic
information, atypical hereditary cellular or blood trait, marital
status, civil
union status, domestic partnership status, military service, veteran
status,

compromise the integrity of the university and unfairly interfere with
the opportunity
for all persons to fully participate in the academic, work, and living
environment of the university.
