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

[Brett Sokolow <>]

The idea, under Title IX irrespective of SaVE, is that if you enter into a relationship because of the sex or gender of your partner, everything that occurs in that relationship context is then, at least in part, related to gender.  Thus, such discriminatory acts will fall within Title IX.

Subject: Re: [WRAC-L] Dating violence and Title IX

The Campus SaVE Act, which promised to "codify" the Dear Colleague Letter (which clearly amends Title IX) and covers all forms of gender-based violence including "dating violence" "domestic violence" "sexual assault" and "stalking."  So long as the conduct is "severe or pervasive" and "offensive," "unwelcome" and "based on sex," Title IX applies.  Many OCR and federal court rulings define a one-time act of violence as a per se Title IX/civil rights violation.

The SaVE Act, as you know, requires and/or allows the application of unfair standards, however.

Subject: [WRAC-L] Dating violence and Title IX

Hey folks -

I'm trying to get clarity on whether or not Title IX covers instances of physical dating violence.  I assumed it did not, but have found some websites and publications that say it does.  Any help here would be very much appreciated!

Thanks
