POSITION DETAILS
The Graduate Center of the City University of New York (CUNY) is the focal point for advanced teaching and research at CUNY, the nation's largest urban public university. With over 35 doctoral and master's programs of the highest caliber, the Graduate Center fosters pioneering research and scholarship in the arts and sciences and prepares students for careers in universities and the private, nonprofit, and government sectors. The Graduate Center's commitment to research and scholarship for the public good is exemplified by its more than 30 centers, institutes, and initiatives, including its Advanced Science Research Center (ASRC), a 200,000 square-foot facility in upper Manhattan, designed to promote collaboration among scientists in five areas of global research and innovation: nanoscience, photonics, structural biology, neuroscience, and environmental sciences.
The Graduate Center (GC) benefits from highly ambitious and diverse students and alumni-who in turn teach hundreds of thousands of undergraduates every year. Through its public programs, the Graduate Center enhances New York City's intellectual and cultural life.
The Executive Director of Institutional Equity/Administrator (EDIE), who serves as the Chief Diversity Officer (CDO) at the Graduate Center, leads the development, implementation and administration of relevant policies and procedures that promote compliance with Federal and State laws and CUNY regulations, with particular emphasis on patterns or systemic problems of sexual misconduct, discrimination, harassment, and workplace diversity. The EDIE oversees the implementation of the University’s policies relating to affirmative action and equal opportunity and ensures compliance with relevant city, state, and federal statutes, including Title VI, Title VII, Title IX, Section 504, and the Americans with Disabilities Act. The EDIE’s responsibilities include reviewing complaints and conducting inquiries and investigations related to Title VI, VII, and IX for the Graduate Center (GC), the Craig Newmark School of Journalism (SOJ), the CUNY School of Labor and Urban Studies (SLU), and the Macaulay Honors College (MHC), which are part of the CUNY Graduate School and University Center (GSUC); participating in campus education and training related to civil rights, workplace violence, and related trainings that may be mandated by the GC or University; and developing campus training materials on prevention and intervention. The incumbent will advise the GC community on the application of CUNY equal opportunity policies and provide educational programming on this and other compliance topics.
The position includes the Title IX designation for the GC, SOJ, and MHC and liaising with CUNY Central on compliance-related policies and procedures. The incumbent will also serve as the Ethics Officer for the GC, MHC, SLU, and SOJ.
The EDIE manages the operations of the GC’s Office of Compliance and Diversity. Reporting to the President, the EDIE will consult regularly with campus legal and labor designee, and with staff in Student Affairs, Human Resources, Public Safety, and the Office of the Provost. The EDIE will regularly inform the President about all matters requiring investigation or compliance activity within the GC and MHC. The EDIE will be expected to collaborate frequently with colleagues to resolve case-related challenges.
