Civil Rights and Accessibility

Free assistance and equal access

To request accessible materials, communication aids, disability accommodations, interpretation, or translation for our programs, contact the coordinator below. Tell us your preferred format or language, the activity, and any deadline. Requests may concern online learning, meetings, or facility visits.

Complaints and protection from retaliation

Students and other program participants may report discrimination or access problems by email, phone, or mail. Help filing is free; no special form or account is required. We aim to acknowledge a complaint within five business days and provide a written decision within 30 business days, with an appeal available.

GraduateSmart prohibits intimidation, threats, coercion, and retaliation against anyone who reports discrimination, requests accessibility or language assistance, opposes discrimination, or participates in a complaint or investigation.

Nondiscrimination Coordinator

A complaint involving the coordinator will be referred to an uninvolved Board reviewer. The listed contact reaches Reginal Joseph directly.
