While embracing these concepts including its obligations under affirmative action regarding race, ethnicity and gender, the University is equally committed to ensuring that educational and employment decisions, including recruitment, admission, hiring, compensation and promotion, are based on the qualifications, skills and abilities of those desiring to work, study and participate in our University community.
