The Department of Education released its Title IX Final Rule on April 29, 2024, addressing Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Sex in Education Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance. The rule prohibits discrimination based on sex in education programs or activities that receive federal financial assistance. These new regulations go into effect and become enforceable Aug. 1, 2024.
This Brief Overview of Key Provisions of the DoE’s 2024 Title IX Final Rule summarizes key provisions.
A proactive working group, comprised of representatives from the Office of Student Conduct & Community Responsibility, the dean of students, Human Resources, and LMU’s general counsel, has already begun discussions about policy changes that will reflect compliance with the new federal regulations and California law. The group will work to ensure the new policy changes align with Loyola Marymount University’s mission. The group will also consult with various community stakeholders to receive feedback during the summer.
More information will be forthcoming in late summer/early fall. Questions can be directed to Sara Trivedi, Title IX Coordinator, at Sara.Trivedi@lmu.edu.
