Guidelines for Posting Faculty Vacancies
The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is committed to the University of Florida’s affirmative action in faculty recruitment. It is the College’s goal to foster diverse faculty who have the capacity, the qualifications and the motivation to perform their assigned duties in superior fashion through a diverse range of interests, abilities, life experiences, and worldviews that will enhance the academic mission of the College.
In attaining this goal the College should maintain a continual commitment toward Equity Compliance for Equal Employment Opportunities by:
- Assuming the responsibility for assuring success of your departmental Equity Compliance Plan by reviewing, evaluating, and changing your plan as circumstances, needs and demands require.
- Eliminating practices and correcting any individual inequity which perpetuates or results from discrimination towards women or minority groups.
- Continuing to target goals for recruitment and consideration of women and minority group members to insure that candidates and employees with appropriate qualifications, potential and responsibility are afforded equal opportunity for selection, training and promotion, and are compensated without discrimination.
- Actively seek to employ the individual best qualified to perform a certain function, recognizing that there are persons of all races, colors, religions, sexes and national origins who can possess the abilities required for the achievement of excellence.
