Student Guide to Title IX
Welcome to our source dedicated to students and their Title IX rights
How does Title IX serve you?
- protects and defends you against sex discrimination -- in conjunction with education programs, including athletic programs, or activities that receive federal funding
- serves as your support link if ever faced with sexual harassment, rape and sexual assault
