Public postsecondary education: Equity in Higher Education Act: campus contact.

The Equity in Higher Education Act establishes the policy of the state to afford all persons, regardless of specified characteristics, including gender, gender identity, gender expression, and sexual orientation, equal rights and opportunities in the postsecondary educational institutions of the state. The act requires the Trustees of the California State University and the governing board of a community colleges district, and requests the Regents of the University of California, to designate an employee at each of their respective campuses as a point of contact for the needs of lesbian, gay, bisexual, asexual, pansexual, transgender, gender-nonconforming, intersex, and two-spirit faculty, staff, and students. This bill would request the trustees, the regents, and the governing board of a community college district to also designate an employee as a point of contact for the needs of the above-described faculty, staff, and students of any satellite, branch, or outreach center of a campus, as specified.
