By action of its Board of Trustees, Pomona College has adopted a 
Domestic Partnership Policy for faculty and staff which becomes 
effective immediately (9/2/93).  The policy extends benefits to 
both gay and non-gay domestic partners and their dependents.  Certain 
specified criteria, similar to those required at Stanford and elsewhere,
must be satisfied in order to qualify as domestic partners.

Under the policy:

     Domestic partners and qualified dependents are 
     granted the same benefits as those provided to 
     married spouses and their dependents, so long as the 
     domestic partnership is in force or, with respect to 
     dependents, so long as they are legally dependent 
     upon the employee of the College.  Those benefits 
     include:

     a) Health and all other insurance benefits, or the 
        monetary equivalent of the College's contribution to 
        be used for such insurance benefits;
     b) Family leave benefit;
     c) Tuition remission;
     d) Home purchase loan;
     e) Athletic facility privileges; and
     f) Library privileges.

Anyone interested in more details about our policy, please feel free to 
contact me.
