An example would be being treated unfairly because someone doesn’t like you or because of your political affiliations.

At Southern Utah University, the protected classes are: color, race, ethnicity, national origin, age, religion, disability, veteran’s status, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression and genetic information.
