New England Conservatory (NEC or the “Conservatory”) is committed to maintaining a safe and healthy educational and work environment in which no member of the NEC community is, on the basis of sex, including sexual orientation, sex stereotypes, gender identity or expression, pregnancy or related conditions, or marital or parental status excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, or subjected to discrimination in any NEC program or activity. NEC does not discriminate on the basis of sex and prohibits sex discrimination in any Conservatory program or activity, including, without limitation, in admission and employment. Sex discrimination, including sexual harassment, sexual misconduct, and sexual violence, are forms of sex discrimination that could deny an individual equal access to NEC’s programs or activities.
It is the policy of NEC to provide educational, preventative, and training programs regarding sex discrimination; to encourage reporting of incidents; to respond promptly, effectively, and equitably to sex discrimination in a manner that is not deliberately indifferent; and to prevent incidents of sex discrimination from denying or limiting an individual’s ability to participate in or benefit from NEC’s programs or activities.
Reports or complaints of sex discrimination involving any member of the NEC community, regardless of where it occurred, should be reported to the Title IX Coordinator:
Katrina Chapman, Title IX Coordinator
