AA/EO statement

Federal law requires the following statement to appear on all print, multimedia and web publications designed for external, off-campus distribution:

• UA is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer and educational institution.

Nondiscrimination statement

Federal law requires this statement to appear on nearly all print and electronic publications. Exceptions are rare, so plan to include it on your print projects. 

Several versions are available at www.alaska.edu/nondiscrimination/.
