A school thrives when its students are engaged and work together in the pursuit of their goals. Touro’s Office of Campus Engagement is here to make that happen. Each campus has a liaison to ensure students work together with respect and consideration, and encourage intellectual inquiry, civil discourse, and different perspectives.
Touro is committed to providing our students and faculty with a welcoming and respectful environment, free of antisemitism and other forms of bias, as they pursue their educational and professional goals.
