Invitation: Conference Call on Proposed Title IX Regulations

National Association of Scholars

Join us next Wednesday, December 12, for a conference call to discuss the Department of Education’s newly proposed regulations to enforce Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972.

The proposed regulations have entered a sixty-day comment period, during which the Department of Education is collecting feedback. NAS has submitted a comment, and we encourage NAS members to submit comments as well.

What: Conference call to discuss Title IX regulations
When: Wednesday, December 12, 3:00-4:00 PM Eastern
Where: Call in to 855-369-0450 and use conference code 52-275-553 #

Register for the call here.

The National Association of Scholars strongly supports most of the proposed changes to Title IX, because they help to ensure fairness for both the accuser and the accused in cases of alleged sexual harassment. However, the regulations must be strengthened to prohibit double jeopardy, provide transparency for Title IX training materials, and establish the “clear and convincing” standard of evidence.
