30 NOVA SOUTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY nondiscrimination statement NSU’s nondiscrimination statement, of which there are multiple versions, must be used as noted in the following explanations. Like the accreditation statement, any version of the nondiscrimination statement must be printed verbatim, as provided by BSV/Printing and Publications. The two most common versions are below. One-Paragraph Version U sed on all brochures, booklets, programs, and smaller admissions materials (not flyers), it should be on any publication where the two-paragraph version won’t fit that mentions any/ all university programs, scholarships (not financial aid in general), or student admissions. • Nova Southeastern University admits students of any race, color, sex, age, nondisqualifying disability, religion or creed, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, military service, veteran status, or national or ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school, and does not discriminate in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs. Any such acts are unacceptable and strictly prohibited by the university. One-Sentence Version U sed on all flyers, ads, or any other material, this version is to inform prospective students about NSU or NSU’s programs. • Nova Southeastern University admits students of any race, color, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, military service, veteran status, and national or ethnic origin. There is also a two-paragraph version that can be supplied by PUB for use on any document that a student will be signing, in a catalog or handbook, or on any legaltype document. If the two-paragraph nondiscrimination will fit, it is the preferred option. The nondiscrimination statement must appear in the same point size (though not the same style of type) as the smallest body copy of the publication. When combining accreditation, nondiscrimination, and/or membership statements, a separator, such as a box or bullet, must be used between all statements. Do not combine, abridge, or amend nondiscrimination statements. Note: Any unit-specific nondiscrimination statements must be approved by the Office of the President and NSU’s legal department. none When a singular noun follows none, use a singular verb. • None of the work was easy. • None of the paper is recyclable. If you want to emphasize the idea of a singular, use a singular verb. • We kept working until 9:00 p.m., and none (i.e., not a single one) of us was resentful. • None of the students (i.e., not a single one) has any desire to transfer. Otherwise, use a plural verb. • None are more heartbreaking than the AIDS babies. • None of the faculty members were unhappy with the administration. (emphasis on group, not on singular) non-native (adj., noun) Note the hyphenation.
