<div class="">Thanks for this. </div>

<div class="">One of the things that I was proud to have achieved for IPAC’15 was a non-discrimination and anti-harassment policy that was voted and adopted by representatives of all the regions. Since then, it has been prominently listed on the websites of
all the subsequent IPACs and applied by the organizers of the conferences. </div>

<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The dress rules for IPAC 2022 are in clear violation of this policy. </div>

</div>
<div class="">Todd, since you are a member of the Organizing Committee, can you send the attached policy to the Organizing Committee and ask that it be respected. </div>

As not everyone attends the CASA coffee meetings, I wanted to include you all in a bit of news regarding IPAC. This morning, a colleague from Liverpool pointed out to me the ridiculousness that is the dress code for the opening ceremony of the conference:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://www.ipac22.org/opening-ceremony/" style="color: rgb(5, 99, 193); text-decoration: underline;" class="">https://www.ipac22.org/opening-ceremony/</a>.
I hadn’t even seen it, but it is quite strict.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">
<o:p class=""> </o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">
More importantly, however, is the discrepancy between the rules of how men and women are to dress. Women are not allowed to wear trousers, but must wear skirts, pantyhose (without runs), etc… They must remove jewelry, and abide by strict requirements. The men’s
list is much shorter.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">
<o:p class=""> </o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">
Furthermore, they do not provide guidance or even recognize that our colleagues which identify as non-binary will be in attendance.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

<o:p class=""> </o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">
Finally, they require that all tattoos are covered, piercings removed, etc… Not only will this be difficult for many of our colleagues who are covered with tattoos, but it discriminates against those cultures and religions in which tattoos (including face and
neck) and piercings are important.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

This guidance goes against the DEI policies of IPAC, and Dr. Suzie Sheehy has written a letter to the organizers asking for changes and clarification. She intends to send this letter at 22:00 UK time. If you would take the time to read through the requirements
and the letter, and find that you agree with these sentiments, we ask that you sign the letter below, and circulate it among the accelerator and accelerator-adjacent community.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>
