The Faculty Equity system is a web application that collects gender and ethnicity data from faculty position applicants. Statistics are generated and reported back to the Faculty Equity office. This is to comply with an audit requirement.   When an application for faculty employment is received in a department, the applicant's email address is entered into the system by a department administrator. An e-mail is generated and sent to the applicant. The applicant is asked to fill out a supplement to the application for employment. This supplement is accessed via the web and asks for the applicant's gender, ethnicity, and referral information. This information is then reported back to the Faculty Equity office. Administrators can view the reports online, print them on paper, or download them to a spreadsheet.
