Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Policy

The University of Texas-Pan American is committed to providing equal opportunity to all persons seeking employment, or access to its programs, facilities, or services without regard to race, religion, color, sex, disability, age, veteran status, national origin, or sexual orientation. In addition to this commitment, the University, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall make good faith efforts to implement its Affirmative Action Plan. Responsibility for implementing the Equal Opportunity Policy and Affirmative Action Plan rests with every member of the university community: administrative officers, deans, department chairs, supervisory personnel and members of search committees. Employees, applicants, and students are protected from coercion, intimidation, interference, harassment, retaliation, or discrimination for filing a complaint or assisting in an investigation.
