Title IX Regulations

SUNY Student Conduct Institute

 

Dear Colleagues,

 

The Title IX Regulations are now out. https://bit.ly/2020TIX.



As you can see, the document is massive, 2,033 pages. It will take some time to go through and analyze. We are all well aware that this comes at an incredibly challenging time, filled with deep unhappiness and high levels of stress for members of our campus community. We hope that the Joint Guidance and the free high quality webinars offered by higher education associations, institutions, and law firms will take a bit of the pressure off of our colleagues at institutions across the country, so that you can continue to focus on the important issues surrounding student and community safety in the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

I know that you, like me, have been receiving e-mails from companies offering to “certify” you in compliance with the Regulations (without even seeing the Regulations first!) for as much as $2,000 per person. SUNY is taking the opposite approach. The Joint Guidance is free, webinars will be free, and all the resources, trainings, and model policies we develop for our Student Conduct Institute members will be included for all our member institutions. No upcharges, no per person costs for training. Period.

 

With best wishes to all for good health.

 

Sincerely,
Joe

 

 

 

Joint Guidance on Title IX Regulations

 

The Title IX Final Rule may lead to significant changes in the investigation and adjudication of certain college cases. We are aware of the level of anxiety on our campuses posed by the uncertainty around the Regulations, especially in light of COVID-19 and to help with that, the SUNY Student Conduct Institute is proud to partner with 50+ attorneys from 20+ law firms and institutions of higher education on a Joint Guidance on Federal Title IX Regulations.

In the Joint Guidance, we will review each provision and provide analysis and initial guidance regarding implementation and challenges that may arise. The Joint Guidance is intended to be thoughtful, high-quality, and widely available to institutions large and small, public and private, urban and rural, well-resourced, and budget challenged. Crucially, there will be no charge to access the Joint Guidance or any of its components and it will be continuously updated as additional resources come online. While hosted and coordinated by SUNY, this is a project of equal partners dedicated to collegially helping colleagues in higher education.
