Director’s Statement on Harassment, Discrimination, and Bullying in Archaeology:

Harassment, discrimination, and bullying are all abuses of power that marginalize individuals and communities, damage productivity and career advancement, and prevent the healthy exchange of ideas. Harassment, discrimination, and bullying thus harm not only the individuals and communities who are directly targeted, but also the discipline as a whole, reducing the quality, integrity, and pace of the advancement of archaeology.  

The Stanford Archaeology Center is deeply committed to continuous action to prevent harassment, discrimination, and bullying before it starts, and, if such abuses of power do occur, to reduce negative impacts by supporting survivors and holding confirmed harassers accountable. We call on all members of the Stanford Archaeology Center community to take positive action to create a learning and research environment that respects and embraces diversity, promotes equality and inclusion, and affirms the right of all archaeologists to participate in studying and teaching about the past.
