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 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.

What To Do If You Are The Victim of Sexual Violence:

The university encourages anyone who experiences or becomes aware of an incident of prohibited conduct involving a student to immediately report the incidence by contacting one of the Title IX Coordinators. University faculty and staff are required to report a known instance of sexual violence, misconduct, or harassment to a Title IX Coordinator. Victims of sexual violence are encouraged to seek medical attention right away. Emergencies on campus should be reported to the Livingston County Police Department by calling 911.

In addition, Cleary University advocates contacting the LACASA Center, a highly regarded Livingston County organization with specialized resources to immediately assist victims of domestic and/or sexual violence.
