Equal Opportunity Statement
The University of Minnesota shall provide equal access to and opportunity in its programs, facilities, and employment without regard to race, color, creed, religion, national origin, gender, age, marital status, familial status, disability, public assistance status, membership or activity in a local commission created for the purpose of dealing with discrimination, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression.
Pay Transparency Non-Discrimination Provision
The University will not discharge or in any other manner discriminate against employees or applicants because they have inquired about, discussed, or disclosed their own pay or the pay of another employee or applicant. However, employees who have access to the compensation information of other employees or applicants as a part of their essential job functions cannot disclose the pay of other employees or applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to compensation information, unless the disclosure is (a) in response to a formal complaint or charge, (b) in furtherance of an investigation, proceeding, hearing, or action, or (c) consistent with the University's legal duty to furnish information.
Education
Equal Opportunity & Title IX is available to deliver educational workshops to the University community related to discrimination (including Title VI), sexual misconduct (Title IX), and retaliation.
To learn more or to schedule a workshop for your unit, please contact Equal Opportunity & Title IX at (612)-624-9547 or [email protected].
Limited English Proficiency
The University's Plan to provide meaningful access to LEP persons is to rely on individual departments and units to determine what resources to offer based on the specific services that department/unit offers. For questions, consultation, and/or training, please contact Equal Opportunity & Title IX.
In addition, on its website, Equal Opportunity & Title IX invites individuals to contact Equal Opportunity & Title IX ([email protected]) if they require additional forms of access, including accommodations, language assistance, or information about our office in other languages. Equal Opportunity & Title IX also provides its non-discrimination statement in several languages.

The University’s Affirmative Action Plan can be accessed, pursuant to applicable law, by contacting the University’s Equal Opportunity & Title IX Office during normal business hours. Additional student and employee data by gender, race and ethnicity is available on the website of the University’s Office of Institutional Research.

The University of Minnesota's Equal Opportunity Statement
Self-Identification
The University invites all employees to self-identify their race and ethnicity, disability status, and veteran status through the MyU portal, which then records the information in the University's Human Resources (HR) data system. Self identification is voluntary and refusal to self-identify will not result in adverse treatment. The University keeps identification information provided confidential and uses this information to comply with legal record-keeping and reporting requirements.
This information also helps the University assess and improve its affirmative action efforts, including in recruitment, hiring, retention, and other personnel processes.
To self-identify your race and ethnicity, please: visit MyU; click on the “My Info” tab; click on the “Ethnicity” link; select the appropriate race and ethnicity categories. The race and ethnicity categories available for selection on MyU have been provided by the federal government.
To self-identify as being an employee with a disability, please: visit MyU; click on the “My Info” tab; click on the “More Personal Information” link; click on the “Change Disability” link; select the appropriate button. Please note that an employee’s self-identification through MyU is not shared with the campus disability resources office and does not constitute registering with the campus disability resources office. In addition, an employee who is registered with the campus disability resources office is not automatically identified as having a disability in the MyU/HR data system. Therefore, we encourage you to self-identify as a person with a disability in MyU whether or not you have registered with the campus disability resources office. If you would like to learn about disability accommodations, please contact the campus disability resources office, regardless of whether you choose to identify as having a disability in the MyU system.
To self-identify as a protected veteran employee, please: visit MyU; click on the “My Info” tab; click on the “More Personal Information” link; click on the “Change Veteran Status” link; select the appropriate button. Please note that not all employees who identify as a veteran are counted in the University’s “Protected Veteran” numbers. The definition of “Protected Veteran” has been provided by the federal government.
Please contact your Human Resources representative or Equal Opportunity & TItle IX for questions about self-identification.
