A Message from President Allen

The University of Northern Iowa is committed to maintaining a culture of ethical behavior, integrity, respect, trust and civility.  To that end, the university is dedicated to the principles of non-discrimination and equal opportunity in all employment and educational matters. 

Our Office of Compliance and Equity Management helps enhance the campus culture by integrating equal opportunity, affirmative action, accountability and compliance processes.  Our programs and procedures are in place to advance the university’s commitment to a diversity of people, ideas, approaches and cultures. 

The university welcomes the opportunity and responsibility to support a campus community that complies with federal and state laws and guidelines concerning civil rights, non-discrimination and affirmative action.  It’s through our commitment to those priorities that we continue toward our vision of being the leader among the nation’s finest public comprehensive universities.

Benjamin J. Allen, President
