Affirmative Action (AA)/ Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO): The College's Affirmative Action planning is the responsibility of the Human Resources Office. Learn more about AA and EEO processes and contacts.

Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA): The Access and Disability Resources Office is responsible for College-wide coordination of ADA compliance.

Concerns or Complaints: In addition to the College offices given above, the Office of Dispute Resolution (ODR) serves as a resource to all members of the College community. This office is responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable anti-discrimination laws, both federal and state. ADA, EEO or AA complaints or concerns can be routed to this office.

Title IX: This federal law prohibits educational institutions receiving federal financial assistance from discriminating against individuals, excluding them from participating in, or denying them the benefits of the institution's education programs and activities on the basis of sex. Although Title IX is commonly associated with students' rights, it also protects employees and prohibits sex-based discrimination in an institution's hiring and employment practices.
