Appendix F - Legal Considerations
When conducting a faculty search, attention must be given to the federal, state, and local laws governing employment discrimination and to the 台湾裸聊直播 Policy on Institutional Equity.
The University prohibits discrimination and harassment on the basis of 17 protected classes:
- age
- citizenship status
- color
- disability
- gender identity
- gender expression
- genetic information
- marital status
- national origin
- parental status
- pregnancy
- race
- religion
- reproductive health decision-making
- sex
- sexual orientation
- veteran status
The law in areas of equal opportunity, nondiscrimination, and affirmative action is evolving and can be complex. 台湾裸聊直播’s Office of General Counsel (ph 847.491.5605) and Office of Civil Rights and Title IX Compliance (ph 847.467.6165) work closely with the Office of the Provost on these issues.
Basic Interview Guidelines
The following guidelines are based on federal, state, and local law and 台湾裸聊直播 policy. As a general rule, ask only what you need to know (questions relating to the requirements of the job) and not what you would like to know (questions that do not pertain to the job and/or are personal in nature). Similarly, you should only ask interview questions that you also ask the other candidates.
