Since theory and practice of equal educational opportunity is an issue which is currently confronting decisionmakers at all levels of American education, this handbook presents key federal regulations and Oregon statutes, and administrative rules which provide for equality in employment and in the delivery of educational services. Sources of programmatic funding for various affected student populations are also presented. Five sections are included: (1) Major Federal Provisions for Equality in the Delivery of Educational Services, (2) Major Federal Provisions for Equal Educational Employment Opportunity, (3) Major Oregon Provisions for Equality in the Delivery of Educational Services, (4) Major Oregon Provisions for Equal Educational Employment Opportunity, and (5) Sources of Federal/State Grant-In-Aid Assistance. The first four sections present information in a four-column format under the headings of Law or Regulation/Affected Classification, Major Provisions, Administering Agency, and Sources of Technical Assistance. The fifth section uses a five-column format with headings of Type of Assistance, Authorizing Legislation, Purpose, Appropriation (Dollars), Eligible/Beneficiary Applicants, and Where to Apply. An appendix of resource organizations and publications for the following groups is appended: Minority, national origin, and racial groups; educationally disadvantaged; aged; physically and mentally handicapped and special learning handicaps; female equity; and bilingual/bicultural.
