The University of Guam (UOG) is committed to achieving equal opportunity and full participation of persons with disabilities by providing for non-discriminatory access to its services and facilities through the ADA Office. The Mission of the ADA Office is to ensure non-discriminatory access to all benefits, privileges, opportunities and obligations to faculty, staff and community members with disabilities and to ensure a process for full compliance by UOG with the ADA of 1990, as amended, and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, taking into account the economic climate and multi-cultural diversity of the institution.

The ADA Office can be contacted at telephone number (671) 735-2244 or Telephone Device for the Deaf (TDD) number (671) 735-2243.

The Enrollment Management & Student Success office provides reasonable accommodations for students in accordance with the UOG Policy and Procedure for student applicants with a disability. The ADA policy can be found on this website.

The President of the University of Guam (UOG) is committed to ensuring a work environment free of discrimination and harassment on the basis of any status protected by law, to include: race, sexual orientation, religion, religious creed, age, disability, citizenship status, and national origin,. Administrators, directors, managers and supervisors must inform employees of the policies prohibiting discrimination and harassment, emphasize the policy of zero tolerance, and deal promptly with any problem situations. Each of us is expected to maintain high standards of honesty, integrity and conduct. Discrimination and harassment violate these standards.

Sexual Harassment is a specific form of prohibited harassment and complaints involve sensitive and complex issues. A prompt and effective inquiry into allegations is critical; not only to avoid liability and prevent future harassing behavior, but also to lay the groundwork for successful resolution. A healthy equal opportunity environment does not just happen. It takes commitment and active involvement – by everyone. Ultimately it is not laws, regulations, or policies that create a quality equal opportunity environment, it is people respecting and encouraging other people.

The University of Guam does not discriminate on the basis of sex in the admission to or employment in its education programs or activities. Inquiries concerning the application of Title IX and its implementing regulations may be referred to the University’s Title IX Coordinator, located at the EEO/ADA & TITLE IX Office, Dorm 2 Iya Hami Hall, Room 104, Tel. No. (671) 735-2244, TDD No.: (671) 735-2243; or to the Office of Civil Rights (OCR).
