Marist University is committed to creating an inclusive workforce
on our campus by ensuring that barriers to equal employment
opportunity and upward mobility do not exist here. To this end, the

unnecessarily exclude protected groups are identified and
eliminated. The University will also explore alternative approaches
if any policy or practice is found to have a negative impact on
protected groups.

practices but also extends to all services and programs provided by
the University. It shall be considered a violation of University
policy for any member of the community to discriminate against any

religion, age, sex, marital status, national origin, sexual
orientation, veteran status, or any other condition established by
