Affirmative Action in Student Employment

As a public educational institution, Wright State University is determined to establish and maintain an environment of academic excellence. Implicit in that determination is the recognition that all members of the university community must have an equal opportunity to develop and utilize their full potential. Accordingly, it is the university's policy to provide equal opportunity to all employees, students, and applicants for employment or admission, without regard to their race, sex, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or sexual orientation.

The university's policy as stated in the Wright Way Policies and Procedures Manual:

4001.2 Statement of Policy

a. Equal Opportunity in Employment
1. Wright State University provides equal employment opportunity. In its employment policies and practices, the university prohibits discrimination against any person or group on the basis of race, sex, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or sexual orientation. Each contractor which deals with the university will be expected to establish and comply with the same prohibition.
2. This policy of equal opportunity applies to all aspects of employment, including initial hiring, position or work assignment, training, promotion, disciplinary action, and termination, of academic and non-academic employees. As indicated more specifically in Section 4001.19 through Section 4001.23 of this policy, it also extends to position descriptions and qualifications, so that cultural assumptions will not cause capable persons to be excluded from consideration unnecessarily.
3. Consistent with its objective of achieving and providing equal opportunity in employment, the university takes affirmative action to identify and eliminate any barriers to equal employment opportunity. For example, inadvertent barriers might exist in the use of inappropriate criteria in position announcements, the manner or place in which recruitment is conducted, the nature of interviews conducted, and so on. As indicated by Section 4001.23 of this policy, the university will take action to eliminate such barriers whether they are formal or informal.
