| SCHEDULE E, PART I, LINE 3 | THE PROGRAMS, SERVICES, AND FACILITIES OF THE COLLEGE ARE AVAILABLE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC REGARDLESS OF RACE, COLOR, RELIGION, DISABILITY, OR NATIONAL ORIGIN. |
| SCHEDULE E, PART I, LINE 6 | IN 1979, ALVERNO COLLEGE WAS A WOMEN'S COLLEGE AND DID NOT ACCEPT STUDENTS INTO UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE PROGRAMS WHO WERE NOT FEMALE. THE COLLEGE WAS CHARGED WITH DISCRIMINATION BECAUSE IT DENIED ADMISSION TO A MALE APPLICANT FOR A NURSING DEGREE PROGRAM. IN 1980, A CONCILIATION AGREEMENT WAS ENTERED INTO BY THE COLLEGE AND THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, EDUCATION, AND WELFARE, WHEREBY THE COLLEGE AGREES THAT IT WILL NEITHER REQUEST NOR RECEIVE PUBLIC HEALTH ACT FUNDS DURING SUCH TIMES AS THE ADMISSION POLICIES OF THE COLLEGE RESTRICT MALES FROM ADMITTANCE TO ALL PROGRAMS IN THE DEPARTMENT OF NURSING. TODAY, ALVERNO COLLEGE DOES WELCOME BOTH MEN AND WOMEN INTO OUR ADULT UNDERGRADUATE, LICENSURE AND GRADUATE PROGRAMS. |
