Notice of Nondiscrimination
      Applicants for admission and employment, students, parents, employees, sources of referral of applicants for admission and employment, and all unions or professional organizations holding collective bargaining or professional agreements with Hesston College are hereby notified that this institution does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, age, or handicap in admission or access to, or treatment or employment in, its programs and activities. Any person having inquiries concerning Hesston College’s compliance with the regulations implementing Title VI, Title IX, or Section 504 is directed to contact Wendell Sauder, Executive Vice President for Planning and Resources at Hesston College, 620-327-8217, who has been designated by Hesston College to coordinate the college’s efforts to comply with the regulations implementing Title VI, Title IX, and Section 504. Any person may also contact the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights, U.S. Department of Education, regarding the college’s compliance with the regulations implementing Title VI, Title IX, or Section 504.

Accessibility Notice
      Although certain facilities are not fully physically accessible to handicapped persons, Hesston College will take such means as are necessary to ensure that no qualified handicapped person is denied the benefits of, excluded from participation in, or otherwise subject to discrimination because Hesston College facilities are physically inaccessible to or unusable by handicapped persons. The accessibility standard required by Federal law for “existing facilities” is that Hesston College’s programs or activities, when viewed in their entirety, must be readily accessible to handicapped persons. Hesston College may meet this standard through such means as a reassignment of classes or other services to accessible locations, redesign of equipment, assignment of aids, alteration of existing facilities, and construction of new accessible facilities. Hesston College is not required to make structural changes in existing facilities where other methods are sufficient to comply with the accessibility standard described above.
      Because scheduling of classes and arranging housing in accessible facilities may require reasonable advance planning, handicapped students accepted for admission should identify themselves within 90 days of the start of the semester of admission and indicate the nature of accommodation that they need.

Grievance Procedures
      Policies and procedures are established in order to assist in the fair resolution of student and employee grievances. Student procedures are outlined in the Hesston College Student Handbook and employee procedures in the Hesston College Human Resources Manual.
