Annual Non-Discrimination Notice
Annual Notice of Non-Discrimination
Manhattan Area Technical College is an open entry institution offering career and technical programs in the following areas of study:
Manhattan Area Technical College is committed to a policy of nondiscrimination in employment and education opportunity. No person shall be discriminated against in terms and conditions of employment, personnel practices, or access to and participation in, programs, services, and activities with regard to race, sex, color, creed, religion, age, national origin, disability, marital status, status with regard to public assistance, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression. In addition, discrimination in employment based on familial status or membership or activity in a local commission as defined by law is prohibited.
Harassment of an individual or group on basis of race, sex, color, creed, religion, age, national origin, disability, marital status, status with regard to public assistance, sexual orientation, or member or activity in a local commission has no place in a learning or work environment and is prohibited. Sexual violence has no place in a learning or work environment. It is required by Title IX not to discriminate on the basis of sex including sexual violence. Inquiries about the application of Title IX may be referred to the Title IX Coordinator and/or to the United States Department of Education. Further, Century College shall work to eliminate violence in all its forms. Physical contact by the designated system and college staff members may be appropriate, if necessary, to avoid physical harm to persons or property.
Lack of English skills will not be a barrier to admission or participation. To eliminate barriers, we take appropriate measures to assess each student’s ability to participate and benefit through placement testing and counseling. Based on the assessment and counseling, students are then provided with campus services or a referral to community services to be better prepared for successful participation.
