Code of Conduct

The MIT Sloan Gaming Industry Conference is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of race, color, sex, ability, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, veteran’s status, age, physical appearance, or body size.

We do not tolerate harassment of event participants in any form. Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately. Event participants violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the event without a refund at the discretion of the event organizers.

Harassment includes offensive verbal comments related to gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, ability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention.

If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact a member of event staff immediately. Event staff will be happy to help participants contact venue security or local law enforcement, provide escorts, or otherwise assist those experiencing harassment to feel safe for the duration of the event.

As an institution, we have adopted a statement of Responsible and Ethical Conduct at MIT: http://web.mit.edu/conduct/. The statement is a compilation of existing, longstanding policies that individually and taken as a whole express the Institute’s expectations of how we treat each other. We are also reaffirming our belief that ethical behavior applies to every member of our community.

For emergencies, contact MIT Campus Police: 617-253-1212 (or 100 from any MIT phone)
