On June 30, 2023, the school signed on to the Associated Medical Schools of New York (AMSNY) statement in response to the Supreme Court's decision regarding race-conscious admission policies, which stated the following: "The consortium of the 17 medical schools of New York State, is profoundly concerned that the United State Supreme Court decisions in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard and Students for Fair Admissions v. University of North Carolina will diminish opportunities for talented students pursuing careers in medicine and science. These decisions reject a longstanding precedent that recognized the compelling interest of ensuring diversity in higher education and may undermine recent advances to address inequities in medical education and research."

The Department of Radiology received a certificate affirming that the department demonstrates “their commitment to promote health equity in medical imaging.”

The Department of Radiology hosts the Diversity and Inclusion Committee which “offers education, training, and support to members of the department at all levels” and is “committed to the mentorship of trainees from underrepresented minorities, faculty and staff recruitment, departmental and medical school-wide DEI initiatives, and community outreach programs.”

The Department of Radiology offers pipeline programs for minorities, including its program, “Pre-Medical Access to the Clinical Experience” known as PACE.
