Florida Equity Report
The Florida Educational Equity Act, FS 1000.05, and other state and federal legislation mandate that students and employees should not be discriminated against on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, gender, disability, or marital status. In addition to statutory guidelines of the Equity Accountability Program Report, FS 1012.95, require that each state University maintain an annual equity plan for appropriate representation of women and minorities in senior level faculty and administrative positions. The Florida Equity Report addresses three major areas: Enrollment, Gender Equity in Athletics, and Employment.
