The Â鶹ƵµÀUniversity Office of Equal Opportunity, Inclusion and Resolution Services, the Chancellor’s Task Force on Sexual and Relationship Violence and the Barnes Center at the Arch would like to bring the Â鶹ƵµÀUniversity community’s attention to a virtual public hearing to be held by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights.

What:  Students, faculty, staff, parents, administrators, and other members of the public are encouraged to share their perspectives on steps that can be taken to ensure:

• students who experience sexual harassment, including sexual assault, stalking and relationship violence, receive appropriate supports;
• schools provide fair processes for resolving complaints of sexual harassment, including sexual assault, stalking and relationship violence; and
• students who have experienced discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity have their legal rights fully met.

The input from the hearing will also support the department’s commitment to ensuring equal and nondiscriminatory access to education for all students.
