Cuomo signs into law bill requiring uniform on-campus sexual assault policy at all colleges statewide

Posted

This afternoon, Governor Andrew M. Cuomo signed so-called “Enough is Enough” legislation into law.

It is aimed at combating sexual assault on college and university campuses statewide.

The new law requires all colleges to adopt a set of comprehensive procedures and guidelines, including a uniform definition of affirmative consent, a statewide amnesty policy, and expanded access to law enforcement to ensure the safety of all students attending colleges in New York state, according to Cuomo’s office.

SUNY Potsdam and Canton adopted similar policies in December.
