Marcinczyk, a security officer at University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ), received a promotion to the position of police officer conditioned upon his attendance at a police academy for training. In order to attend the Academy, all other recruits were required to execute an exculpatory agreement accepting possible risk of physical or psychological harm. In training, Marcinczyk was designated as one of two “lunch recruits.” He slipped on “some kind of substance” on the steps and fell, suffering severe and disabling back injuries. Can Marcinczyk argue that the exculpatory agreement violated public policy?
