Report Sexual Misconduct


Sexual Misconduct

Sexual misconduct is a broad term that includes acts of sexual violence, sexual harassment, dating and domestic violence, and stalking. Sexual misconduct and discrimination violates an individual’s fundamental rights and personal dignity. CWU considers sexual misconduct in all its forms to be a serious offense.

Title IX

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 states: “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”

See: CWUP 2-35-015 Title IX: Discrimination on the Basis of Sex and Sexual Misconduct
