Non-Discrimination Statement

The College of Saint Benedict (“CSB”) and Saint John’s University (“SJU”) are committed to working toward a workplace and educational environment, as well as other benefits, programs, and activities, which are free from discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. Discrimination, harassment, and retaliation of any form are a violation of a person’s rights, dignity, and integrity. Such acts debase the integrity of the educational process and work environment and are contrary to the mission and values of CSB and SJU.

CSB and SJU are committed to compliance with all applicable anti-discrimination laws and do not unlawfully discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability, familial status, status with regard to public assistance, or other legally protected category or characteristic, in their education programs and activities, in their admissions policies, in employment policies and practices, and all other areas of the institutions.

CSB and SJU have zero tolerance for unlawful discrimination and harassment.
