What is Title IX?
Title IX protects people from discrimination based on sex in education programs or
activities that receive Federal financial assistance. Title IX states that:
“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.”
The Title IX Coordinator oversees the university's compliance with Title IX of the
Education Amendments of 1972. The Title IX Coordinator works with university administration,
departments, students, faculty, staff, campus police and other support services to
ensure that university policies and programs foster a campus community free of illegal
gender discrimination and sexual violence.
For incidents of abuse or neglect of minors, Arkansas law requires reporting of abuse
or neglect to the Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-482-5964) established by the Department
of Human Services. University employees and volunteers must also report such instances
to the University of Arkansas Police Department at 479-575-2222.
