Title IX Information Sessions

WSU is committed to a learning, living and working environment that is safe and free of sex discrimination. The WSU community relies on the cooperation of all employees and students to accomplish this goal. Title IX is a federal law enacted in 1972 that prohibits sex discrimination in all university student services and academic programs. Title IX also forbids discrimination on the basis of sex in employment and recruitment for institutions receiving or benefiting from federal financial assistance.

The federal government has determined that employees who have the authority to redress sexual violence, or whom a student could reasonably believe has this authority, or employees who have been given the duty of reporting incidents of sexual violence or any other misconduct, have an obligation to report Title IX violations to appropriate university officials.

Title IX sessions will cover information about Title IX, including the responsibilities of a Title IX Responsible Employee from 10-11:30 a.m. today (Tuesday, Sept. 13) in 264 RSC, and 2-3:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 15, in 319 RSC. Additional sessions are scheduled throughout the fall semester. Registration is available through myTraining.
