Title IX Policy
Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972 prohibits any person in the United States from being discriminated against on the basis of sex in seeking access to any educational program or activity receiving federal financial assistance. The U.S. Department of Education, which enforces Title IX, has long defined the meaning of Title IX’s prohibition on sex discrimination broadly to include various forms of sexual harassment and sexual violence that interfere with a student’s ability to equally access our educational programs and opportunities.
On May 19, 2020, the U.S. Department of Education issued a Final Rule under Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 that:
See, 85 Fed. Reg. 30026 (May 19, 2020). The full text of the Final Rule and its extensive Preamble are available here: http://bit.ly/TitleIXReg
Based on the Final Rule, Drew University will implement the following Title IX Grievance Policy, effective August 14, 2020. The policy is linked via pdf below.
Drew University is a proud member of the SUNY Student Conduct Institute. Much of Drew's training, documentation, policies, and guidance comes from our membership within this collective.
