Institutional Equity and Compliance (IEC) investigates all allegations of illegal discrimination and harassment: https://www.unl.edu/equity/NonDiscrimination.htm.
The process involves fact-finding and assessment of the situations, followed by an assessment of those facts with regard to federal and state laws, rules and regulations, and with University of Nebraska-Lincoln departmental policies and procedures. IEC will also make recommendations and suggestions for a resolution of the conflict. The focus of these internal investigations is to ensure fairness and to help facilitate an outcome that will enable individuals to experience an environment where they have an opportunity for success.
