Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

The federal education law requires that the College, as a recipient of federal funds, identify an individual who will be responsible for fulfilling the College’s “Title 第九“责任. “第九条” refers to a section of the federal Higher Education Act which makes it illegal to discriminate against a student or college employee on the basis of gender (also called sex discrimination). 性别歧视包括 all acts of sexual misconduct, including but not limited to sexual assault, domestic and dating violence, and stalking.

In 2015, New York State passed one of the nation’s most aggressive laws to end sexual 大学校园暴力. Entitled “Enough is Enough”, the law establishes a student “Bill of Rights” to which every college student in New York is entitled, if they are involved in an act of sexual violence while on campus or during a college-related 活动.
