BTAA DH Annual Meeting Code of Conduct
Anti-Harassment Policy
We want the 2018 Big Ten Academic Alliance Digital Humanities Annual Meeting to be a welcoming, supportive, and comfortable space for all participants, and we will work to make it a harassment-free environment. We will not tolerate harassment of participants in any form. Harassment includes offensive verbal comments related to race, ethnicity, sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, country of origin, age, disability, body size, religion, or other protected class status; intimidation; stalking; harassing or unwanted photography or recording; sustained disruption of talks or other events; inappropriate physical contact; and unwelcome sexual attention. Participants violating the anti-harassment policy may be warned or asked to leave by meeting organizers.
Reporting Harassment or Violations
If at any point during the meeting you feel uncomfortable or harassed, or if you witness any violations of these policies, please reach out to the meeting organizer, who will be introduced and identified at the opening session. You can also email ancourtn@indiana.edu for less urgent matters.

This policy was adapted from the Indiana University Information Literacy Colloquium, which was copied nearly verbatim with permission from the CLAPS 2016 conference Code of Conduct, which was in turn adapted from the #critlib 2015 unconference. The original code of conduct was based on the NYC Archives Unconference Code of Conduct, which is based on the SAA Code of Conduct and the AdaCamp event policies.
