The Office of Institutional Equity (OIE) is the centralized office established to respond to protected class discrimination, harassment and sexual misconduct. Harassment and discrimination can take many forms, including acts of hate and violence. When these acts occur, know there are so many resources at Ohio State and the surrounding communities.
Every year, Ohio State requires students and employees to complete online training designed to help them recognize, prevent and report sexual misconduct and to educate them about resources to help those who might have experienced sexual misconduct. All students and employees were notified by email of this requirement in early September 2023.

Within the past few weeks and months we have seen examples of antisemitism, racism, and other hateful behavior in the national news and on the Columbus campus (more).
