Report an Incident
Students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to report any incidents that violate the Interim CSU Nondiscrimination Policy to the Office of Equity & Compliance. Faculty and staff who are classified as responsible employees have a duty to report if they know, or should know, that an incident of discrimination, harassment (including sex-based harassment under Title IX), or retaliation has occurred.
Confidential Resources
On- and off-campus confidential resources are available for individuals who have experienced discrimination, harassment, and/or retaliation. Confidential resources can provide support and referrals to additional resources. These resources are not required to report to the Office of Equity & Compliance.
Prevention and Education
Prevention staff within the Office of Equity & Compliance are available to support your events, provide educational workshops and compliance-based trainings, and provide educational materials and consultation. All campus community members can reach out to request services.

Other Conduct of Concern (OCC)
OCC is conduct that does not violate CSU policies or local, state or federal laws and, therefore, does not warrant disciplinary action but that nevertheless negatively impacts the learning, living and working environment of the CSU community.
Members of the California State University, Northridge community have a right to work, live, and learn in an environment free from discrimination and/or harassment based on a protected status. CSUN is committed to maintaining an environment where no student, employee, visitor, or recipient of services and/or benefits provided by the University is subjected to any form of prohibited discrimination or harassment in any University program or activity.
We value inclusion as a necessary condition for achieving institutional excellence, and we strive to provide leadership that extends beyond the fulfillment of basic regulatory requirements. Every member of our campus community plays an integral role in contributing to our diversity and in addressing fundamental issues of bias and exclusion and building equity for all.
