(formerly 659.150)

NOTES OF DECISIONS

      Order issued by Chancellor of Higher Education which found University of Oregon not in violation of this section was inadequate where it did not indicate criteria to be used in determining discrimination issue, so case had to be remanded for development of criteria to evaluate reasonableness of university’s actions. Aiken v. Lieuallen, 39 Or App 779, 593 P2d 1243 (1979)

      Legislative history of this section did not support chancellor’s determination that three year compliance schedule of federal statute (Title IX) applied to this statute. Aiken v. Lieuallen, 39 Or App 779, 593 P2d 1243 (1979)

      Reasonableness requirement applies to disparate impact discrimination. Montgomery v. Board of Education, 188 Or App 63, 71 P3d 94 (2003)

      Prohibition against religious discrimination requires greater adjustments to accommodate person’s religious beliefs and practices than adjustments that could be required to avoid discrimination on nonreligious basis. Montgomery v. Board of Education, 188 Or App 63, 71 P3d 94 (2003)

      School district can violate prohibition against subjecting person to discrimination by permitting community organization to discriminate in school program, service or activity, regardless of whether school personnel are involved. Powell v. Bunn, 341 Or 306, 142 P3d 1054 (2006)

      Precipitating conduct during school activity that may ripen into discrimination at place and time outside of school program, service or activity is not discrimination. Powell v. Bunn, 341 Or 306, 142 P3d 1054 (2006)

      Cases under Title VII of federal Civil Rights Act do not provide guidance in determining need for reasonable accommodation under this section. Nakashima v. Board of Education, 344 Or 497, 185 P3d 429 (2008)

      For policy having disparate impact to be valid, challenged policy must clearly be reasonably necessary for existence or administration of program or activity involved. Nakashima v. Board of Education, 344 Or 497, 185 P3d 429 (2008)
