Oklahoma State University (OSU) is committed to maintaining a learning environment that is free from discriminatory conduct based on race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability,
age or protected veteran status. OSU does not discriminate on the basis of sex in its educational programs and
activities. Examples of sexual misconduct and/or sex discrimination include: sexual violence, sexual harassment,
sexual assault, domestic and intimate partner violence, stalking, or gender-based discrimination. OSU encourages
any student who thinks that he or she may have been a victim of sexual misconduct or sexual discrimination to
immediately report the incident to the Title IX Coordinator (campus contacts below). Students may also report
incidents of sexual misconduct or sex discrimination to a faculty or staff member, who is then required by federal
law (Title IX) to notify the Title IX or Deputy Title IX Coordinator. If a reporting student would like to keep the
details confidential, the student may speak with staff in the Student Counseling Center (405-744-5472) or the
University’s Victim Advocate (Suzanne Burks: 405-744-5458). For more information regarding Title IX violations,
please go to: http://1is2many.okstate.edu. This publication, issued by Oklahoma State University as authorized by
New Student Orientation, was printed by CareerTech at a cost of $4,015 /3.8M 06/16 #6479.
Welcome Week is packed with academic and social programs
where you will meet current students and get the inside scoop
