Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University believes it is important to foster an environment that encourages students to maintain a standard of responsibility for self-care, which includes the ability to respond adequately to one's emotional, physical and educational needs. Some students who are distressed engage in behaviors that impact their self-welfare and the welfare of the university community.
Students are provided an opportunity to express any complaint, grievance or dispute that, upon investigation, may be remedied. The Dean of Students Office will provide advice and guidance to students who present us with grievances or complaints, whether personal or academically related.
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University continually strives to recognize, respect, and celebrate the differences and cultural identities among individuals as we recruit, support, and embrace our diverse community. We work to provide a safe environment where self-expression is welcome. We strive to create a campus climate free of discrimination, so that networks, partnerships, and cultural competency continue to be fostered through leadership, integrity, care and respect.
