NY State Legislature amends Dignity Act to expand definition of harassment and bullying - Lexology

The New York State legislature recently passed amendments to the Dignity for All Students Act (the "Dignity Act") to expand the definition of harassment and bullying under the law to explicitly include cyberbullying and other forms of off-school-property conduct. The Dignity Act took effect on July 1, 2012, and the newly passed amendments will become effective on July 1, 2013.
