Nondiscrimination Policy Page five V. The State College of Iowa inserts into every contract or subcontract a clause in which the contractor or subcontractor is prohibited from engaging in discriminatory practices forbidden by the Iowa Fair Employment law and/or the Federal Civil Rights Act of 1964. A violation of the non-discriminatory provisions of these acts will be considered a material breach of contract. Specifically, the State College of Iowa approves and exerts every effort to enforce the following Code of Fair Practices (of the Iowa State Board of Regents) regarding contracts between the Board of Regents, the State College of Iowa, and the contractors: (1) The contractor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, creed, color, or national origin. The contractor will take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, creed, color, or national origin. Such action shall include, but not be limited to the following: employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship. (2) The contractor will send to each labor union or representative of workers with which he has a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding a notice advising the said labor union of worker's representative of the contractor's commitments under this clause. (3) In the event of the contractor's noncompliance with the non-discrimination clauses of this contract, this contract may be cancelled, terminated or suspended in whole or in part and the contractor may be declared ineligible for further contracts with the State Board of Regents, and such other sanctions may be imposed and remedies invoked as provided by the Iowa Fair Employment Practices Act, Chapter 330, Laws of the 60th General Assembly, Chapter 735, Code 1962. (4) The contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of the contractor, state that all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, creed, color or national origin. (5) The contractor will include the provisions of paragraphs (1) through (4) in every contract or subcontract exceeding $10,000, and every contract or subcontract for standard commercial supplies and raw materials exceeding $100,000, so that such provisions will be binding upon each such sub-contractor or supplier. Supplies or materials shall not be purchased in less than usual quantities to avoid applicability of paragraphs (1) through (4). DP:jg January 17, 1966
