NON-DISCRIMINATION AND HARASSMENT POLICIES

  • Title IX

    Title IX states "No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under an educational program or activity receiving federal financial assistance".

  • Sexual Misconduct

    Molloy is committed to a learning, working, and living environment where all members of the community feel safe and respected. Acts of sexual harassment are serious violations of our policies and our values. Any form of sexual misconduct will not be tolerated. Our policy aims to ensure that all members of the Molloy community can study and work together without being subjected to sexually inappropriate behavior. You may read the Molloy University's employee sexual misconduct policy here.

     

  • Affirmative Action Policy Statement

    Affirmative Action is designed to ameliorate the present effects of prior discrimination as a result of which certain groups are under-represented in the College's working community. Under representation is an imbalance between those in the labor force who possess the relevant qualifications and their representation within the specific job category in the College. Read the full affirmative action policy.

  • Americans with Disabilities Act

    The College is committed to compliance with all provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1991 and to ensure the fair treatment and consideration of persons with disabilities in all areas of employment. Read the complete policy here.

  • Anti-Hazing Statement

    At Molloy University, all clubs, teams, and organizations must abide by the Anti-Hazing Rule, adopted by the Board of Trustees to govern public order on campus and throughout all Molloy properties. Familiarize yourself with the Molloy University anti-hazing policy.

Confidential Reporting

Molloy University is rooted in the Catholic and Dominican tradition places high value on its community, ethical leadership, responsibility, and integrity. As such, we hold ourselves to the high standards set forth in our mission statement, policies, and handbooks.

The University is committed to an environment where open, honest communications are the expectation, not the exception. We want you to feel comfortable in approaching the appropriate university personnel in instances where you believe violations of policies or standards have occurred.

However, in situations where you prefer to place an anonymous report in confidence through an outside party, Molloy has implemented the EthicsPoint program. This comprehensive and confidential reporting tool, administered by a party unaffiliated with Molloy, is intended to assist the University and all members of its community to promote a positive learning and work environment and address violations of any college policies.

The information you provide to EthicsPoint will be shared with the appropriate University personnel, on an anonymous basis, if you should choose. If you choose to make an anonymous report, please know that by not revealing your name, it may hamper the University’s ability to investigate or resolve your complaint. Also be assured that Molloy prohibits retaliation against any individual who in good faith, makes a complaint, voices a concern, or cooperates in an investigation.

The program supplements regular University reporting avenues, and members of the Molloy community are encouraged to use it, whenever necessary. To access the EthicsPoint program, please click on the link below or you can find it on the upper left side of this page (EthicsPoint Confidential Reporting).

  • Make a Report

    After you complete your report, you will be assigned a unique code called a “report key.” Write down your report key and password and keep them in a safe place. After 5-6 business days, use your report key and password to check your report for feedback or questions.
