VIII. Additional Provisions Pertaining to Parental, Family, or Marital Status, and Pregnancy or Related Conditions

In determining whether a person satisfies any university admissions policy or criterion, or in making any offer of admission, the university will treat Pregnancy or Related Conditions in the same manner and under the same policies as any other temporary medical condition.

The university will not make pre-admission or pre-employment inquiry as to the Marital Status of an Applicant, including whether an Applicant is "Miss or Mrs." The university may ask an Applicant to self-identify their sex, but only when asking this question of all Applicants. The response will not be used as a basis for discrimination.

The university will not adopt or apply any policy, practice, or procedure, or take any employment action, concerning the current, potential, or past Parental, Family, or Marital Status of a Student, Employee, or applicant that treats persons differently on the basis of sex, or which is based upon whether an Employee or applicant for employment is the head of household or principal wage earner in such Employee’s or applicant’s family unit.

The university will not discriminate against, establish or follow any policy, practice, or procedure that discriminates against, or exclude from employment any person on the basis of current, potential, or past Pregnancy or Related Conditions.
