Title IX

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is a comprehensive federal law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in any federally-funded education program or activity.

Title IX states: “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.” – United States Department of Education

The Title IX Coordinator has primary responsibility for the administration of the College’s Title IX Complaint and Grievance Process, which is available by clicking the link below. The Title IX Coordinator and the Deputy Coordinators work to resolve complaints of sexual misconduct, sexual harassment, and gender-related violence, including stalking and intimate partner violence involving students and/or employees at the College.

When a Formal Complaint is filed, the Title IX Coordinator and Deputy Coordinators will ensure a prompt and thorough investigation is completed, and a fair hearing will be provided.
