Non-Proselytizing

Suffolk University does not tolerate any behavior that constitutes harassment on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin, religion, sex, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, genetic information, military or veteran status or any other characteristic protected under applicable federal or state law.

In light of this harassment policy, it is appropriate to further clarify that Suffolk University, its religious groups, and its religious coordinators are committed to mutual respect and non-proselytization. Any form of religious harassment and manipulation is opposed, while the roles of personal freedom, doubt, and open critical reflection in healthy spiritual growth are affirmed. Religious harassment is constituted by coercive behavior that affects one’s personal freedom to choose one’s own religious practices.
