The school has a responsibility to identify the Responsible Employees. Social media post that include information about assaults have to be reported to the Title IX coordinator or responsible employee.
Very informative session. The Title IX coordinator is responsible to coordinate the necessary trainings to all staff, students and faculty members and reporting incidents is extremely important.
Immediate responses for complaints of this nature are very important. However, all involved should take precaution to make sure it is handled properly and professionally.
I learned the necessary steps that need to be taken when reporting an incident that has occurred as well as the importance of immediate action.
THe title IX coordinator has a huge role in the enforcement and implementation of the title 9 scope which includes:
"A recipient institution that receives Department funds must operate its education program or activity in a nondiscriminatory manner free of discrimination based on sex, including sexual orientation and gender identity. Some key issue areas in which recipients have Title IX obligations are: recruitment, admissions, and counseling; financial assistance; athletics; sex-based harassment, which encompasses sexual assault and other forms of sexual violence; treatment of pregnant and parenting students; treatment of LGBTQI+ students; discipline; single-sex education; and employment. Also, no recipient or other person may intimidate, threaten, coerce, or discriminate against any individual for the purpose of interfering with any right or privilege secured by Title IX or its implementing regulations, or because the individual has made a report or complaint, testified, assisted, or participated or refused to participate in a proceeding under Title IX. For a recipient to retaliate in any way is considered a violation of Title IX. The Department’s Title IX regulations (Volume 34, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 106) provide additional information about the forms of discrimination prohibited by Title IX." according to the department of education
