Purpose
Montgomery County Community College (MCCC) strives to create a community of and for learners. To do so requires an environment of trust and openness. MCCC is committed to the premise that all individuals have a right to learn and work in an environment that is safe, productive, respectful, and free from discrimination. Discrimination will not be tolerated as such behavior is disrespectful, contrary to our goals and objectives, and threatens to destroy the environment of mutual respect that must prevail if the College is to fulfill its mission.
Policy
MCCC, in its educational programs, activities, employment and human resources policies and practices, will not discriminate against any individual because of race, sex, color, religion, creed, national origin or ancestry, age, marital status, sexual orientation, disability, or veteran status. Reasonable accommodation will also be provided to persons with disabilities, veterans, and to accommodate religious practices. Moreover, regardless of whether the discrimination violates or does not violate federal, state or local laws, MCCC takes seriously all allegations of discrimination.
