Purpose Claremont McKenna College maintains an Institutional Review Board (IRB), as mandated by Federal law, in order to ensure that researchers who are part of the CMC community protect the dignity, privacy, and safety of the participants they recruit for their research. In addition, the IRB serves to protect the dignity, privacy, and safety of everyone in the CMC community when they choose to participate in research. College policy requires that all research involving human participants and all systematic gathering of personal information being carried out by the students and faculty of CMC or taking place on the CMC campus should follow the principles set forth in The Belmont Report. All such research and information-gathering must be submitted for IRB review, with exception for procedures carried out by students under the direction of their instructors and involving, in the view of the instructor, neither greater than minimal risk, nor conflicts of interest regarding his or her own research, nor participants who may be unable give informed consent. The CMC IRB will not approve any proposal by a non-CMC researcher which is not of minimal risk. Campus resources may not be used to recruit participants for such projects, nor may such projects be conducted on the CMC campus. A "Research Summary (PDF)" must be submitted along with the Application for Review to the IRB chair. CMC's IRB does not review research involving animal subjects. If your project does involve animal subjects, please contact Marion Preest, Chair of the JSD Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) by phone at (909) 607-8014 or by email at mpreest@jsd.claremont.edu.
