The Office of Equal Opportunity supports the recruitment, selection, and hiring process by enforcing compliance with Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, and Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Through this effort, the Office of Equal Opportunity works with the University leadership to establish and measure recruitment goals, offers training on civil rights topics, and educates those involved in the recruitment, selection, and hiring process to minimize discrimination in all aspects of employment.
With respect to the full-cycle recruitment process, the Office of Equal Opportunity oversees:
- Affirmative action compliance.
- Sourcing and outreach resources identified to foster an applicant pool that is representative of all.
- Workforce analyses and reports.
- Civil rights compliance training.
- Investigations of allegations of discrimination.
