Tinu, At Purdue, we don’t have a specific policy on this subject. Rather, it is implied by our policy on Equal Opportunity, Equal Access and Affirmative Action (III.C.2)<http://www.purdue.edu/policies/ethics/iiic2.html>, which prohibits discrimination on several bases, including religion. As to specific guidance on the issue, our student regulation on Classes<http://www.purdue.edu/studentregulations/regulations_procedures/classes.html> outlines the expectations for faculty and students in section 1, and our Vice President for Ethics and Compliance sends out a memo at the beginning of each academic year<http://www.purdue.edu/newsroom/purduetoday/releases/2016/Q3/religious,-ethnic,-and-civic-observances.html> as a reminder for all faculty, staff, and students.
Best, Jessica Teets Coordinator, University Policy Office Purdue University 765-496-9634 From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Diver, Tinu Sent: Thursday, March 23, 2017 1:58 PM To: Association of College and University Policy Administrators <[email protected]> Subject: [acupa-l] Religious Accommodation Policy Hi folks, I'm doing some research for one of our units on Religious Accommodations Policy and am interested in similar policies from other institutions. This policy would cover students, faculty and staff and could address everything from attendance/excused absence, use of facilities, dietary, etc. Would you mind sharing any policy/policies your school has on this topic?
