Combating Sexual Assault and Other Unwelcome Sexual Behavior
The Office of Equal Opportunity & Diversity strives to proactively foster greater inclusion and equity.
We support CUNY’s policies against discrimination and sex-based misconduct and seek to ensure equal opportunity for the Law School’s community, including students, faculty and staff. We are committed to CUNY’s policy statements that “diversity, inclusion, and an environment free from discrimination are central to the mission of the University” and for “creating and
maintaining an environment in which its community members live, learn, and work free
from all forms of sex discrimination.”
We serve as a resource to our campus community regarding Policies on Equal Opportunity/Nondiscrimination and Sex-Based Misconduct. We are also available to provide on-site training to your department, office or unit.
If you wish to file a discrimination or sex-based misconduct complaint, you are encouraged to do so. Also, managers and supervisors are required to immediately report discrimination complaints to this office. Additionally, ALL employees (except confidential employees) are required to report sex-based misconduct to this office.
Please note: CUNY requires that all discrimination and retaliation complaints (but not sex-based misconduct complaints) should be reported through the Complaint Reporting Portal.
Combating Sexual Misconduct
On Tuesday, July 23, 2024, The City University of New York (“CUNY” or the “University”) Board of Trustees adopted the Policy on Sex-Based Misconduct (the “Policy”), which replaces the Policy on Sexual Misconduct. Consistent with the Final Rule published by the Department of Education on Monday, April 29, 2024, the Policy is effective as of Thursday, August 1, 2024. The policy governs all CUNY schools, colleges, and units.
