(E) Human Resources The university’s mission statement includes a commitment “to excellence and diversity in our students, faculty, staff, and all of our activities.” Our strategic plan, UC|21 (http://www.uc.edu/uc21/), includes as one of its goals a commitment to “establish a sense of place.” Central to these commitments is the principle of treating each community member fairly and with respect. To encourage such behavior, the university prohibits discrimination and harassment and provides equal opportunities for all community members and applicants regardless of their race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, disability, medical condition, marital status, sex, age, sexual orientation, veteran status, gender identity and expression or any other characteristic protected by law or policy. Where actions are found to have occurred that violate this standard the university will take prompt action to end the offending conduct, prevent its recurrence and discipline those responsible. Specific rules and policies in support of this standard are found at these locations: University rule 10-13-01, University policy on non- discrimination http://www.uc.edu/trustees/rules/RuleDetail.asp?ID=81 Office of equal employment opportunity website http://www.uc.edu/af/equal_opportunity/ In addition, the university places significant responsibility on those who supervise or instruct employees or students.
