Hate Crime Policy

 
A hate crime is defined in Nevada law as a crime listed underor against another person who is motivated by virtue of the victim鈥檚 actual or perceived race, color, religion, national origin, physical or mental disability or sexual orientation. Hate crimes are particularly repugnant to the mission of the Nevada System of Education (NSHE) and detrimental to the responsibility of NSHE to provide a safe environment for education, research and service for the NSHE community.
