Intolerance, bigotry, and bullying are antithetical to the
values of the university, and unacceptable within the Rutgers community. Verbal assault, harassment, intimidation,
bullying, or defamation interferes with the mission of the university, and each
member of this community is expected to be sufficiently tolerant of others so
that all students are free to pursue their goals in an open environment, able
to participate in the free exchange of ideas, and able to share equally in the
benefits of our educational opportunities. Beyond that, each member of the community is encouraged to do all that
she or he can to ensure that the university is fair, humane, and responsible to
all students. The Policy against Verbal
Assault, Harassment, Intimidation, Bullying, and Defamation seeks to establish
certain minimum standards in order for the community to be able to fulfill its
mission.
The policy may be viewed here: Policy
