Title IX and student diversity

What is Title IX?

Title IX is a federal civil rights law passed as part of the Education Amendments of 1972 that protects people from discrimination based on sex in education programs or activities that receive Federal financial assistance.

Title IX applies to any institution receiving federal financial assistance from the Department of Education. Educational programs and activities that receive federal funds from the Department of Education must operate in a nondiscriminatory manner and may not retaliate against any person making a complaint under Title IX.
