Preventing Harassment & Discrimination

At Ithaca College, we are committed to fostering a safe and healthy environment for all employees and community members.

Ithaca College is committed to ensuring a workplace free from sexual harassment, as required by New York State law. Our Sexual Harassment Prevention Policy protects all employees, including student employees, paid and unpaid interns, and nonemployees—regardless of immigration status.

If you believe you have experienced or witnessed sexual harassment, we encourage you to report it to a supervisor, Human Resources, or Title IX. [Click here to access our report forms.]
