OEO
Mission Statement
In keeping with the educational mission of the university, the
Office for Equal Opportunity (OEO) at NC State works to ensure
that the university is a non-discriminatory and harassment-free
environment where people can work and learn. To that end, OEO's
mission is four-fold: education, intervention, compliance, and
service (outreach). OEO monitors the university's compliance with
applicable federal and state laws, UNC system policies, and NC
State University policies in regard to equal opportunity, non-discrimination,
and affirmative action. OEO works proactively to move NC State
toward embracing the spirit of equal opportunity, affirmative action,
and achieving a diverse university community through education
of policy and issues, outreach, and service.
Vision
OEO strives to make North Carolina State University an institution
where commitment to equal opportunity meets or exceeds legal requirements
to create a fair and equitable campus community.
Goals
- To facilitate compliance with federal and state laws regarding
equal opportunity and affirmative action.
- To investigate and resolve complaints of discrimination and
harassment.
- To create, implement, publicize, and monitor university equal
opportunity and affirmative action policies and procedures.
- To educate students, staff, and faculty about their rights
and responsibilities with regards to equal opportunity as members
of a diverse academic community.
- To assist departments and units in the recruitment and retention
processes of employees and students to ensure that equality of
opportunity prevails at NC State.
- To advocate for equal opportunity, affirmative action, non-discrimination,
and access.
- To foster an academic community where diverse people have an
equal opportunity to learn and work to their fullest potential
and are judged solely on academic, performance, or job criteria.
