Annual notice of nondiscrimination
From Mae Marsh Director of Equal Opportunity and Diversity
Included below is our annual notice of nondiscrimination for your information. Publishing notices and statements is one thing, but bringing them to life is the responsibility of each and every community member. This means every community member is accountable to follow this guidance and for being an active partner in preventing sex based harassment and violence.
Notice of nondiscriminationThe university of Alaska Fairbanks does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, creed, national origin, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, veteran status, physical or mental disability, marital status, changes in marital status, pregnancy or parenthood, genetic code or retaliation.
Pursuant to Title VI and VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Civil Rights Act of 1991; Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972; Executive Order 11246, and Executive Order 11375, as amended; Equal Pay Act of 1963; Age Discrimination Acts of 1974 and 1975; Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974; Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1992; the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act of 2008; Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008; Pregnancy Discrimination Act; Immigration Reform & Control Act; Vocational Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and Alaska Statutes which guarantees equal opportunity to individuals and protected classes within our society.
This policy affects employment policies and actions, as well as the delivery of educational services at all levels and facilities of the university. Further, the university's objective of ensuring equal opportunity will be met by taking affirmative action: i.e., making intensified, goal-oriented efforts to substantially increase the participation of groups where their representation is less than proportionate to their availability; providing reasonable accommodations to employees and students with disabilities; and ensuring that employment opportunities are widely disseminated to agencies and organizations that service underrepresented protected classes.
