Administrative and Faculty Recruitment Resources
Wesleyan University's affirmative action program is designed to achieve
diversity among faculty, administrators and staff; to treat all
appointments and promotions in a manner free from discrimination; and to
correct any under-utilization of women and minorities in employment
positions. Wesleyan, as an institution is dedicated to excellence in
liberal studies, has a responsibility to itself to seek out the most
talented people and a responsibility to society to further the goal of
achieving equality of opportunity.
For that reason, along with the principle of nondiscrimination, the University is committed to a program of affirmative action with regard to
members of certain groups as specified by the U.S. Department of Labor.
Wesleyan, therefore, makes concerted efforts to recruit, employ, and
promote qualified members of minority groups, women, handicapped
individuals who are otherwise qualified, special disabled veterans, and veterans
of the Vietnam era.
