Equal Opportunity in CAES

The University of Georgia College of Agricultural & Environmental Sciences offers its educational programs, assistance, and materials to all people regardless of race, ethnicity, national origin, color, gender, sexual orientation, religion, age, disability, or veteran status and is an equal opportunity, affirmative action organization.

We are the 1862 land-grant university in the state and a publicly funded institution. Because of this, we are subject to federal laws and University policies regarding our day to day operations with special emphasis on Titles VI and IX of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
