Accordion Content

  • This policy discusses the university's prohibitions against discrimination and harassment based upon membership in enumerated protected classes, as well as the prohibitions against retaliation based upon the exercise of rights pursuant to the policy. The policy is listed here, including its scope,  as well as definitions of harassment and discrimination, and a process for reporting violations.

  • Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is a federal law that prohibits sex discrimination in education. Sex discrimination includes sexual harassment and sexual assault. While it is often thought of as a law that applies to athletics programs, Title IX is much broader than athletics and applies to many programs at Rutgers. This policy also references the process for reporting violation of the policy.

  • Information about the Student Code of Conduct is contained here.

  • The Law School's Associate Deans of Student Affairs work with students who may require accommodations and help guide them through the process of applying for accommodations through the University's Office of Disability Services (ODS).

    Rutgers values the diverse experiences that students with disabilities bring to the Law School community.
