submitted 28 years ago by Pub. L. 89-329 to r/title-20-EDUCATION · 151 words · no verdicts yet
A college receiving Federal aid may not use that aid for work or contracts that exclude people because of race, religion, sex, or national origin, with an exception for objective discrimination studies. Other disability and civil-rights laws remain unaffected.
(a) In general. An institution of higher education* receiving Federal financial assistance may not use that assistance, directly or indirectly, for a study, project, or contract that expressly or implicitly bars a person or persons because of race, religion, sex, or national origin. This does not stop an institution from conducting objective studies or projects about the nature, effects, or prevention of discrimination, or from including discrimination in its curriculum.
(b) Limitations on statutory construction. Nothing in this chapter limits an individual’s rights or responsibilities under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, or any other law.
Institutions of higher education receiving Federal financial assistance may not use such financial assistance, directly or indirectly, to undertake any study or project or fulfill the terms of any contract containing an express or implied provision that any person or persons of a particular race, religion, sex, or national origin be barred from performing such study, project, or contract, except that nothing in this subsection shall be construed to prohibit an institution from conducting objective studies or projects concerning the nature, effects, or prevention of discrimination, or to have the institution’s curriculum restricted on the subject of discrimination.
Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to limit the rights or responsibilities of any individual under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 [42 U.S.C. 12101 et seq.], the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 [29 U.S.C. 701 et seq.], or any other law.
