Rice University General Policy No. 821

EQUAL OPPORTUNITY/AFFIRMATIVE ACTION STATEMENT FOR USE ON PUBLICATIONS AND ADVERTISEMENTS  

In complying with federal law and certain Internal Revenue Service regulations, I think it best that Rice standardize its Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action statements. Accordingly, I ask that you use the following statement in brochures and catalogues directed to student applicants, academic program information, and any other literature used for recruiting students, staff or faculty, or for general information. This statement should be included in all new and reprinted publications of the University.

Rice University is committed to affirmative action and equal opportunity in education and employment. Rice does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national or ethnic origin, age, disability or veteran status.

For job advertisements, the following statement is required:

Rice University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer.
