Syracuse University Non-Discrimination and Equal Opportunity Policy Statement

Syracuse University’s University's Marriage and Family Therapy department follows the Syracuse University Non-Discrimination and Equal Opportunity Policy Statement. Syracuse University is an equal-opportunity, affirmative-action institution. The University M.F.T. department prohibits discrimination and harassment based on race, color, creed, religion, health, socioeconomic status, sex, gender, national origin, citizenship, ethnicity, marital status, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression, genetic information, veteran status, or any other status protected by applicable law to the extent prohibited by law. This nondiscrimination policy covers admissions, employment, and access to and treatment in University programs, services, and activities.

Additionally, M.F.T. faculty and staff adhere to and prepare students to value the creation of socially-just, anti-racist, L.G.B.T.Q.-Affirmative and anti-discriminatory environments. Students are expected to engage in cultural humility, awareness of self in relation to others, and an understanding of psychosocial and cultural contexts of issues presented in clinical practice and research. We believe that valuing each other’s other's similarities and differences helps us to deepen our understanding of relationships in systems. Students are required to see clients with diverse backgrounds/experiences and may not choose their caseloads based on race, class, gender/gender expression, sexual orientation, religion, culture, age, health, socio-economic status, or other diversity category.

Confidentiality and Privacy

Syracuse University is committed to the protection and confidentiality of student educational records, adhering closely to the guidelines established by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (F.E.R.P.A.) a federal legislation established to regulate access and maintenance of student educational records. F.E.R.P.A. affords student certain rights with respect to their education records, including the right to inspect their education records, request an amendment of the records that the student believes are inaccurate, and the right to control disclosures of their records except to the extent that F.E.R.P.A. authorizes disclosure without consent. (It is important to note that all rights to access move to the student when that student is in a post-secondary education institution; parents, spouses, and significant others have no inherent right to access to student educational records.) Educational records for the most part include, with certain exceptions, all records maintained in any medium, which can identify the student.
