Every student should read and understand CSN's Academic Integrity Policy.

The College of Southern Nevada is committed to making physical facilities and instructional programs accessible to students with disabilities. If you have a disability that may have some impact on your work in this class and for which you may require accommodations, please visit the Disability Resource Center (DRC) so that such accommodations can be considered. All discussions will remain confidential. The DRC has offices on all three campuses. These serve as the focal point for coordination of services for students with disabilities.

If you have a physical, emotional, or mental disability that “substantially limits one or more major life activities (including walking, seeing, hearing, speaking, breathing, learning and working),” and will require accommodation in this class, please contact:

CSN believes equity is the foundation for a thriving, justice-centered institution that serves all. We strive to uphold our mission, to create, and preserve an inclusive environment that is dedicated to achieving educational access, equity, inviolable dignity, and opportunity for all to participate, prosper, and reach their full potential.

We ensure that all of our work and efforts are transformative and build an institutional culture that is truly Students First. We commit to the journey ahead, we embrace difficult conversations, examine implicit biases, and remain steadfast in our continuous process of improvement. We do this by creating, uplifting, and centering all of the voices and experiential knowledge of our students, employees, and campus communities.

This prohibition on discrimination extends to pregnancy and related conditions—including childbirth, lactation, false pregnancy, termination of pregnancy, and recovery therefrom—as well as to parental and family status.
