[nagdu] Discrimination in Campus Housing

[Marion Gwizdala]

Hannah,
    There are different laws that govern different situations. Though I am 
not an attorney, I believe the Fair Housing Amendments Act best covers this 
situation. At the same time, steve has a point that it may also be covered 
under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, since they receive public 
funding in the forms of PEL grants and likely other federal funding. We have 
some excellent contacts with the DOJ's Office of Civil rights Education 
Section that we can enlist for more information, if needed. Please keep me 
in the loop. You can do this by sending me messages at

President at NAGDU.ORG

Best Wishes!
Marion Gwizdala
