Important Title IX Updates
New regulations from the United States Department of Education were scheduled to go
into effect on August 1, 2024, after
the final Title IX rule was released on April 19, 2024. Since then, the University has been monitoring pending
litigation and updated guidance related to the regulations. The University will make
the necessary adjustments to the policy or the process applied to comply with the
most recent government laws, regulations, or court holdings. Until the injunction(s)
are resolved, or additional guidance is released, we will apply the University's Sexual
and Gender-Based Misconduct Policy for incidents that fall under the 2020 Title IX
regulation jurisdiction, and we will apply the Sex-based Harassment and Discrimination
policy for incidents that do not fall under the 2020 Title IX jurisdiction but do
fall under the Sex-based Harassment and Discrimination policy. The Office of Title
IX and Bias Compliance will provide updates as they become available. Applicable policies
can be found on the
Title IX Policy page. For questions, please contact
