Title IX
The regulations pertain to more than gender equity in athletic programs, although that is also an important component. Title IX prescribes that any educational institution receiving federal financial assistance must expressly prohibit sexual misconduct, gender discrimination, sexual harassment, and all forms of retaliation stemming from the reporting of alleged or confirmed offenses that fall under the regulations.
Cleary University strives to maintain an inclusive, nondiscriminatory, and safe/secure environment for its students, faculty/staff, and visitors, as reflected in its student, faculty, and employee handbooks, University Catalog, Student Code of Conduct, and Drug & Alcohol Policy
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 reads as follows:
“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….”
20 U.S.C. § 1681 and 34 C.F.R. Part 106 (1972).

Title IX Coordinators' Responsibility
Pursuant to federal regulations, every institution of higher education must appoint a Title IX Coordinator. A Title IX Coordinator has primary responsibility for monitoring the development and implementation of the organization’s efforts to prevent and address all forms of gender-based discrimination within its operational purview. Suspected instances of gender-based discrimination, harassment, sexual misconduct, or associated retaliation should be reported promptly to the coordinator.
