Email Judge Jonathan Lippman, former Chief Judge of the State of New York
At the request of Governor Hochul, Judge Lippman is conducting an independent review of CUNY policies and procedures related to antisemitism and discrimination. Read More

In connection with that review, Judge Lippman and his team have established an email address, cuny.review@lw.com, so that CUNY students, faculty, employees, and other members of the CUNY system and the public, can directly communicate with Judge Lippman’s review team. Anyone can use the cuny.review@lw.com address to directly provide comments, suggestions, materials, or other information that will assist, or otherwise be relevant to, the review. The email address also can be utilized by anyone seeking to speak directly with the team conducting the review. If such a request is made, the review team will make best efforts to arrange an interview, subject to availability.  Emails sent to cuny.review@lw.com will go directly to the outside review team and no one at CUNY will have access to the mailbox. Please note that while the review team cannot guarantee that it will be able to keep all messages and or materials received through cuny.review@lw.com confidential, the team will do its best to honor any requests for confidentiality.
