Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) and Affirmative Action (AA)

Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) and Affirmative Action (AA) requirements apply to the University as a federal contractor. Institutional Accessibility and Accommodation (IAA) provides oversight and coordination for accessibility and accommodation matters under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA), Sections 504 and 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, and Electronic Information Resources (EIR). Concerns involving discrimination, harassment, retaliation, or other prohibited conduct should be directed to the Department of Investigation and Adjudication (DIA).

Please provide at least 14 business days’ advance notice for any data request requiring review. This timeframe allows IAA to assess compliance obligations, evaluate privacy considerations, and coordinate with campus partners as needed. Urgent requests may be considered for expedited review when the urgency and rationale are clearly communicated. Expedited review does not guarantee that the requested data will be provided. IAA values its collaborative relationships with campus partners and is committed to facilitating appropriate data sharing while maintaining strong standards for privacy and data protection.

Permissible data requests include grant applications, third-party Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) compliance requirements, and other EEO obligations.
