Dartmouth College is committed to the principle of equal opportunity for all
its students, faculty, employees, and applicants for admission and employment.
For that reason Dartmouth does not discriminate on the basis of race, color,
religion, sex, age, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national
origin, disability, or military or veteran status in its programs,
organizations, and conditions of employment and admission. (Dartmouth College
refers to the entire institution, including the professional schools, graduate
programs, and auxiliary activities.)
Executive Order 11246, as amended, prohibits discrimination in employment
because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin and requires
affirmative action to ensure equality of opportunity in all aspects of
employment. Questions or concerns may be directed to Dartmouth's Office of
Institutional Diversity & Equity or to the U.S. Department of Labor Office
of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP), J.F.K. Federal Building, Room
612C, Boston, Massachusetts 02203. A complaint must be filed with OFCCP no
later than one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of the alleged
violation.
Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 prohibits job discrimination
on the basis of disability and requires affirmative action to employ and
advance in employment qualified individuals with disabilities. Section 402 of
the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended,
prohibits job discrimination against disabled veterans and veterans of the
Vietnam era and requires affirmative action to employ and advance in employment
qualified disabled veterans and veterans of the Vietnam era.
Dartmouth has developed an affirmative action plan to carry out the mandate
of Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and Section 402 of the Vietnam
Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974. This plan is administered by
