Title IX

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX) prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in all educational programs and activities. Title IX reads:

 “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…”  Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, and its implementing regulation at 34 C.F.R. Part 106 (Title IX).

What is covered by Title IX

In compliance with Title IX, Loyola University Chicago prohibits discrimination in all educational programs and activities on the basis of sex.  Programs and activities under Title IX include: academic programs, admissions, athletics, recruitment, financial aid, housing and employment.  Under Title IX, discrimination on the basis of sex can include sexual harassment, unwelcomed sexual advances or sexual violence, such as rape, sexual assault, sexual battery, and sexual coercion.
