Title IX Notice/Non-Discrimination

 
NSHE and Great Basin College are committed to providing a place of work and learning free of discrimination on the basis of a person’s age (40 or older), disability, whether actual or perceived by others (including service-connected disabilities), gender (including pregnancy related conditions), military status or military obligations, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, genetic information, national origin, race (including hair texture and protected hairstyles such as natural hairstyles, afros, bantu knots, curls, braids, locks and twists), color, or religion (protected classes).
 
GBC does not discriminate on the basis of sex in any education program or activity that it operates. Non-discrimination on the basis of sex is mandated by Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (20 U.S.C. 1681 et seq.) and the corresponding implementation regulations (34 C.F.R. Part 106). The college's commitment to nondiscrimination in its education programs and activities extends to applicants for admission and employment.

The Student Assistance General Provisions of Public Law 101-542 require all institutions that participate in student financial assistance programs as authorized by Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965 and Higher Education Technical Amendments of 1991, Public Law 102-26, to disclose the graduation rate and/or persistence rate of all full-time degree-seeking or certificate-seeking undergraduate students. Information and statistics are available from the Admissions and Records Office, Berg Hall, 775.327.2059.
 
The Jeanne Clery Act is the landmark federal law, originally known as the Campus Security Act, which requires colleges and universities across the United Status to disclose information about crime (murder, robbery, arson, forcible and non-forcible sex offenses, and fire safety) on and around their campuses. The 2008 amendments protect crime victims, “whistleblowers,” and others from retaliation. The 2013 Campus SaVE (Sexual Violence Elimination Act) codified certain aspects and adds Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, and Stalking.
 
In compliance with the provisions of the Act, each October, the Annual Security and Fire Safety Report is prepared by the University Police Services, Northern Command.
