Yeshiva University has a long-standing commitment to equal opportunity and affirmative action. We apply every good faith effort in achieving non-discrimination and equality of opportunity in employment and in all spheres of academic life.
All University-wide decisions with regard to faculty, staff, and students are based on equitable and equally applied standards of excellence. Unlawful harassment procedures have been established, both as a legal obligation under applicable law and as a visible and formal expression of institutional policy.
The University's policy is designed to ensure that recruitment, hiring, training, promotion, and all other personnel actions take place, and all programs involving students, both academic and non-academic, are administered without regard to race, religion, color, creed, age, national origin or ancestry, sex, marital status, physical or mental disability, veteran or disabled veteran status, genetic predisposition/carrier status, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, citizenship status, sexual and other reproductive health decisions, or any other characteristic protected by any applicable law, ordinance or regulation. In addition, University policy is designed to maintain a work and academic environment free of harassment and intimidation.
If you have any questions relating to equal opportunity or affirmative action, or if you wish the University to pursue a possible violation of University policy, you should contact the University's Title IX Coordinator or a Deputy TIX Coordinator.
