Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in New York

Public University funds
I am attending at public state university (SUNY at Buffalo), the Univerisity has a career center that can be used by all students, and the school of Management has a career center that they only allow mgmt. students to use. Now, the mgmt. school has company positions that I am qualified for in their database but is unwilling to allow me equal access to that database. Is this legal that a Public University is keeping fellow University students from using its resources.

Re: Public University funds

I understand what you are asking but I believe that it is legal. Anti-discrimination statutes all have exceptions built in allowing for

businesses to hire certain gender employees for certain positions, churches and religious schools to hire only those of a certain religion etc.

The Management school is permitted to provide only for its own students so long as the University as a whole provides for the entire student body.
