Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

Colleagues,

 

Today, the US Department of Education Office for Civil Rights issued a Dear Colleague Letter as Guidance on Title IX compliance for institutions on campus sexual violence.  The letter explicitly addresses hot button issues such as complainant appeals and preponderance of evidence as the standard of proof.  Please access the letter at:  http://www.ncherm.org/documents/OCRDearColleagueLetter4.4.11.pdf
