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 Colleges 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 colleges 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 colleges 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 Colleges
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.
