Session Abstract
This workshop will discuss the evolution of Title IX and the requirements of colleges and universities to adhere to this law. A focal part of this law is to provide students with comprehensive options to report sexual misconduct, which includes sexual assault and harassment, relationship violence, stalking, and crimes of bias. In addition, this process needs to be equitable for the victim and the accused. This workshop aims to provide a framework when reporting such offenses at Winthrop University and how we help assist students, faculty and staff in navigating the system. Also, this workshop will review the importance of compliance with Title IX and the mandates within the Office of Civil Rights. Attendees by the end of the workshop should have a greater understanding of Title IX and the sexual misconduct policy at Winthrop University.
