Welcome Message

As Vice-President of the Office for Institutional Equity, I want to reiterate Duke University and Duke University Health System’s commitment to excellence and respect for all members of our community. The Duke Harassment Policy supports and sustains this commitment. Harassment of any kind is unacceptable at Duke. Education and awareness of basic principles of harassment prevention and respectful engagement are important tools in creating and advancing a productive and healthy community climate. I invite and encourage you to use this website as a centralized resource when faced with issues of possible harassment.     Benjamin D. Reese, Psy.D.
