Sauk Valley Community College is an equal opportunity employer and complies with applicable federal and state laws prohibiting discrimination in all employee and student relations. No person on the basis of race, gender identity/expression, sexual orientation, sex, genetic information, creed, religion, color, marital or parental status or family responsibilities, veteran status, age, national origin, membership in any professional group, organization or association, socioeconomic status, or mental or physical disability shall be discriminated against, which includes, but is not limited to, admissions, employment, financial assistance, placement, recruitment, educational programs, and activities. Students admitted from a foreign country are expected to take the TOEFL exam. A minimum level of competency on the TOEFL exam is part of the consideration of admission. For students who reside in the United States, a lack of English skills is not a barrier to admission and participation in educational programs. Violation of this policy on the basis of sex is also governed by the Sexual Misconduct Procedures. Inquiries or complaints may be addressed to the Title IX Coordinator or the Director of Human Resources.
