Discrimination Claims. Claims that the Board or the University engaged in unlawful discrimination or unlawful harassment may be presented as Grievances pursuant to Article 22 (Grievance Procedures and Arbitration). It is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that matters which may be presented as Grievances under Article 22 (Grievance Procedures and Arbitration) be so presented and resolved through that procedure instead of using other procedures. The UFF agrees not to process cases arising under this Article when alternative procedures to Article 22 (Grievance Procedures and Arbitration) are initiated by the Grievant, except that a Grievant may file an EEOC charge while the Grievance is in progress when such filing becomes necessary to meet federal filing deadlines pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq.
