It is the policy of the district that a formal
Affirmative Action program operates within the district. The
Affirmative Action program will function to identify and help
to eliminate discriminatory practices in order that equal
employment opportunities are extended to all persons in staff
positions. The concept of equal opportunity is embodied in
the very nature of the service provided to the community.
Primary responsibility for equal employment
and affirmative action is with the College President. The
Affirmative Action Officer develops and monitors the functions
of the Affirmative Action program. The total support of every
employee, student, and recipient of district services is also
required to assure equality of opportunities and respect for
individuals.

arrest record, religion, pregnancy, or parental status or
other protected status, unless such action is specifically
job related. Harassment shall extend to physical contacts
or solicitation of favors, which is based upon any of the
aforementioned protected categories when:
-
Submission to such conduct is made either explicitly
or implicitly a term or condition of an individual's employment
or educational status; or
-
Submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual
is used as the basis for employment or educational decisions
affecting such individuals; or
