Equal opportunities

This might mean that women potentially receive a very different set of mentoring experiences to men. To provide equal opportunities to all participants of a formal mentoring program, it would be advisable to ensure that both male and female mentees experience a mix of mentors (in terms of gender) throughout their careers.

The principle of equal reactivity as enunciated above asserts merely that all like functional groups remaining unreacted at any given stage of the process enjoy equal opportunities for reaction. It has not been stated that the level of reactivity (i.e., the velocity coefficient) necessarily remains constant as the reaction progresses. Indeed, the velocity coefficient for polyesterification has been shown to change as the reaction progresses from 0 to 80 percent conversion. Since monoesterifications exhibit a similar perturbance, it has been concluded that the size of the polymer molecules formed does not alter the course of the reaction hence the principle of equal reactivity is not violated. 

The distinguishing feature of such a mechanism occurs in the fact that the growth of all polymer molecules proceeds simultaneously under conditions affording equal opportunities for all. (This will hold provided the addition of monomer to the initiator is not much slower than succeeding additions.) These circumstances are unique in providing conditions necessary for the formation of a remarkably narrow molecular weight distribution—much narrower than may be obtained by polymer fractionation, for example. Specifically, they are the conditions which lead to a Poisson distribution of the number and mole fraction, i.e. ... 

Since the 1960s there has been a sea change in university admissions. Key Supreme Court decisions and federal laws made equal opportunity the law of the land, and many institutions of higher learning adopted policies of affirmative action. The term affirmative action was first used in the 1960s to describe the active recruitment and pro-...

The 67-fold amplification obtained for polymer 3 is restricted by an inherent limitation of the wired in series design. As the exciton travels in a one-dimensional random walk process down the polymer chain, it has equal opportunity to visit a preceding or an ensuing receptor. This represents 134 random stepwise movements for 134 phenylene ethynylene units, and so much of the receptor sampling by the exciton is redundant. Increasing the efficiency of receptor sampling requires maximization of the number of different receptors that an exciton can visit throughout its lifetime. To achieve this end we extended the polymer sensor into two dimensions by use of a thin film and thereby increased the sensitivity.

If mixture (A,B)N is ideal, mixing will take place without any heat loss or heat production. Moreover, the two cations will be fully interchangeable in other words, if they occur in the same amounts in the mixture, we will have an equal opportunity of finding A or B over the same structural position. The Gibbs free energy term involved in the mixing process is... 

The racially disproportionate nature of the war on drugs is not just devastating to black Americans. It contradicts faith in the principles of justice and equal protection of the laws that should be the bedrock of any constitutional democracy it exposes and deepens the racial fault lines that continue to weaken the country and belies its promise as a land of equal opportunity and it undermines faith among all races in the fairness and efficacy of the criminal justice system. Urgent action is needed, at both the state and federal level, to address this crisis for the American nation. ...

For applications to be processed via the centralised procedure, the CHMP appoints one of its members to act as rapporteur for the coordination of the evaluation of an application for a marketing authorisation. The CHMP may, and usually does, also appoint a second member to act as co-rapporteur. For line extensions, the CHMP will decide on the need for appointment of a corapporteur on a case-by-case basis. All members have an equal opportunity to act as the rapporteur or co-rapporteur, and therefore the CHMP members are invited to express their preference regarding rapporteurships in writing in advance of the meeting at which rapporteurs are appointed. Rapporteurs are usually appointed at every other meeting to facilitate the decision making process as regards (co)-rapporteurships.

The use of salt formation to expand the number of crystals which contain a single molecular type was first applied by Meredith (26), and more recently by Marder et. al. (22). In the latter work, ionic interactions are used to offset dipolar interactions among achiral molecules, which enhances the probability that the resulting crystal will be noncentrosymmetric. In our case, of course, noncentrosymmetry is ensured by the chirality of the molecules involved. It is important to note that, within the picture we have presented, neither the assurance of noncentrosymmetry, nor the enhanced hyperpolarizability of the chiral molecule guarantees that the nonlinearity of any particular chiral organic salt crystal will be large. These properties simply ensure that each crystal so formed has an equal opportunity to express the molecular hyperpolarizability in an optimized way. 

In summary, the precision of sampling improves with the size of each of the increments collected and with the number of increments included in a gross sample and manual sampling involves the principle of ideal sampling insofar as every particle in the entire mass to be sampled has an equal opportunity to be included in the sample. 

There are numerous situations where coal must be sampled at rest despite the potential for compromising the reliability of the sample(s) acquired. A major problem with sampling coal at rest is that an inevitable and unknown degree of segregation will prevail, and it is not possible to penetrate all parts of the mass such that every particle has an equal opportunity to be included in the sample. 

Conventional design of most mechanical sampling systems for large tonnages of coal use some form of cross-stream primary cutter to divert the primary increments from the main stream of coal (Figure 2.2). A major advantage of these systems is that they sample coal from a moving stream, and most of them satisfy the principle that every particle in the entire mass has an equal opportunity to be included in the primary increments.

In addition to sexual harassment and accommodation of religious beliefs, equal treatment for individuals with disabilities is a significant issue for the treatment of both employees and customers. The Americans with Disabilities Act provides equal opportunity for persons who are disabled in the workplace. This act prohibits discrimination in all aspects of employment from hiring to firing, similar to practices that are covered by equal opportunity employment laws. Persons are considered disabled if they have either a physical or mental impairment that significantly limits one or more major life activities or have a record of impairment. Also, discrimination against a person who has a relationship with a disabled person is prohibited.
