Class Profile

Northwestern University is an equal opportunity, affirmative action educator and employer.

Northwestern University does not discriminate or permit discrimination by any member of its community against any individual on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, parental status, marital status, age, disability, citizenship or veteran status in matters of admissions, employment, housing or services, or in the educational programs or activities it operates.

Harassment – whether verbal, physical or visual – that is based on any of these characteristics is a form of discrimination.
