New York University

Affirmative Action Policy

New York University is committed to a policy of equal treatment and opportunity in every aspect of its

relations with its faculty, students, and staff members, without regard to age, citizenship status, color,

disability, marital or parental status, national origin, race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation. This

includes, but is not limited to, recruitment, hiring or appointment, selection for training, transfer, layoff,

promotion, granting of tenure, rates of pay and forms of compensation, and participation in University-

sponsored educational, social, and recreational programs.

It is New York University’s firm policy, in accordance with the requirements of Title IX of the Educational

Amendments of 1972 and implementing federal regulations, not to discriminate on the basis of sex in the

operation of the University’s educational programs and activities. Federal requirements of non-

discrimination on the basis of sex include employment by the University and admission to the professional

and graduate schools of the University. Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is similar in its prohibition of

discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin.

Federal regulations require that affirmative action be taken to employ and advance in employment

disabled people, disabled veterans, and veterans of the Vietnam Era.

Inquires regarding the application of the federal laws and regulations concerning equal employment and

educational opportunities at New York University may be referred to: Evelynne R. Patterson. Associate

Vice President for Equal Opportunity, New York University, Elmer Holmes Bobst Library, 70 Washington

Square South. Room 1202. New York, NY 10021. Ms. Patterson is also the University’s Section 504

coordinator (equal opportunity for the disabled) and Title IX Coordinator (equal opportunity without regard

to gender). Inquiries may also be referred to the director of the Office of Federal Compliance, U.S.

Department of Labor.

New York University

Policy on Sexual Harassment

New York University is committed to maintaining a learning and working environment for all students,

faculty, and staff that is fair, humane, and responsible - an environment which supports, nurtures, and

rewards career and educational advancement on the basis of ability and performance. Sexual

harassment undermines the character and purpose of the University.

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, as well as state and local law, prohibits unlawful

discriminatory treatment of any employee on the basis of sex. At New York University, we expect ALL

members of our community to act in accordance with this law. The University will not tolerate

discriminatory conduct and will take prompt and remedial action upon receipt of knowledge that such

behavior has occurred.
