Non-Discrimination Policy
Any employer utilizing the UW Law School's Office of Career Services to recruit or employ law students or graduates agrees to do so in accordance with the provisions of Title VII of the Federal Civil Rights Act, Wisconsin's Fair Employment Practice Statutes Sections 11.31 et seq., and UW-Madison Faculty document 542, 5 December 1983. These provisions prohibit discrimination on the basis of age, race, creed, color, handicap, marital status, sex, national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, arrest record or conviction record. Penalties for violating these regulations and policies may include the denial of University facilities.
United States Military
In its employment practices, the United States military discriminates
on the basis of sexual orientation, a basis not permitted by the
laws of Wisconsin, the policies of the University of Wisconsin,
and the bylaws of the Association of American Law Schools.
Representatives of the United States military are permitted to
interview at the University of Wisconsin Law School because of
the provisions of UW-Madison Faculty Document 542, 5 December
1983, and because of the loss of federal funds to the University
that would otherwise be imposed under federal statutes, commonly
known as the Solomon Amendment.
