About Title IX

TITLE IX - 20 U.S.C. § 1681 & C.F.R. Part 106 (1972): "No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any educational program or activity receiving federal financial assistance."

Title IX protects people from discrimination based on sex in education programs or activities that receive financial assistance from the federal government. This includes protection for students, educators and school employees against all forms of sex or gender discrimination, including sexual harassment, dating and domestic violence, and other forms of sexual misconduct, stalking and retaliation.

To ensure compliance with Title IX and other laws, California State University (CSU) policy prohibits:

• Discrimination or harassment based on any protected status
• Sexual harassment
• Sexual misconduct
• Dating violence and domestic violence
• Sexual exploitation
• Stalking
• Prohibited consensual relationships
• Retaliation

Commitment to Change

To strengthen its systems of care and compliance, in 2022 and 2023 the California State University engaged the Cozen O’Connor Institutional Response Group to conduct a systemwide assessment of its Title IX and Discrimination, Harassment and Retaliation (DHR) programs.
