We changed ours in 2010 to cover same sex domestic partners as well as the children of the domestic partner. http://cms.montgomerycollege.edu/EDU/Verified_-_Policies_and_Procedures/PDF_Versions/35001_Compensation_Programs/ The relevant language is under "Tuition Waiver Plan for Dependents/Spouses" on page 17 in the procedure.

From: Robertson, Valerie Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2014 8:20 AM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Employee benefits for same sex couples Good morning, all...any input you care to share will be very helpful. We received inquiries regarding Staff Scholarship Guidelines for same-sex partners and dependents. Our educational scholarship benefits are extended to employees and their dependents. UNT's nondiscrimination policy statement says "The University of North Texas does not unlawfully discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, political affiliation, disability, marital status, ancestry, genetic information, citizenship, or veteran status in its application and admission process, educational programs and activities, university facilities, or employment policies." The question being asked is: With this policy stating it is unlawful to discriminate against Sexual Orientation, can same-sex partners be granted the Staff Scholarship benefit, even though the state of Texas does not recognize the union? Many thanks.
