Equal Educational Opportunity Policy

The University of New Mexico Gallup is committed to providing equal educational and employment opportunity regardless of sex, marital or parental status, race, color, religion, age, national origin, or physical handicap. Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972 prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in any educational program or activity receiving federal financial assistance by way of grant, contract or loan. Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is similar in its prohibition of discrimination on the basis of race, color or national origin; and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 prohibits discrimination against qualified handicapped persons. Equal educational opportunity includes: admissions, recruitment, extracurricular programs and activities, housing, facilities, access to course offerings, counseling and testing, financial assistance, employment, health and insurance services, and athletics. Responsibility for equal employment and educational opportunity throughout the University rests with the President. The President has appointed an Affirmative Action Director, and a Title VI and Title IX Officer, and has assigned responsibility to them for promoting and encouraging progress in meeting the University's equal opportunity goals. All grievances, questions or requests for information relating to student concerns should be referred to the Director of Student Services, Student Services Center, 863-7522. All grievances, questions or requests for information relating to employee concerns should be referred to 1700 Las Lomas NE, Albuquerque, New Mexico, 505-277- 5251.
