One of the most valuable lessons I’ve taken from this course is how critical it is to go beyond just “knowing” Title IX and VAWA policies, and instead, learning how to apply them in real situations. Understanding the laws is one thing—but being prepared to respond when a student or colleague comes forward with a concern is what truly makes the difference in protecting our learning environment.
A strategy that has worked well for me is active listening combined with resource connection. When someone shares a concern, the natural instinct is to try to fix the problem immediately. However, I’ve… >>>
Comment on Seok Hyun Song's post: You did a great job summarizing the scope of Title IX! I agree with you that one of the most important takeaways is how broad its protections are—not just on campus but also in off-campus activities where the college still holds responsibility.

In my work, I use critical thinking to evaluate research findings more thoroughly, approach problems methodically, and develop evidence-based strategies for improving patient care, especially in addressing health disparities and vaccine hesitancy.
