Section 46a-80l of the General Statutes makes it a discriminatory practice, on and after , for the state system of higher education to deny a person the opportunity for higher education on the basis of erased criminal history record information.

Erased criminal history record information is criminal history record information erased under section 54-142a or 54-76o or any other provision of law, information about a person granted youthful offender status, and continuances of a criminal case that are more than thirteen months old.

Section 10a-6(b) of the General Statutes requires the policies of the state system of higher education to be consistent with the goal of ensuring that no qualified person is denied the opportunity for higher education on the basis of erased criminal history record information, among other grounds.
