TITLE IX Office

Title IX Office

Title IX is a comprehensive federal civil rights law that prohibits sex-based discrimination (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, and gender identity) in any educational program or activity that receives federal funding. Discrimination on the basis of sex includes sexual harassment and sexual violence, which includes sexual assault, sexual coercion, domestic/intimate partner violence, and stalking. Nondiscrimination protections apply to student recruitment, admissions, educational programs (including individual courses), research, housing, counseling, financial and employment assistance, health and insurance benefits and services. Title IX also prohibits retaliation against any person who reports or assists in making a report of sexual misconduct or who participates in the investigation and resolution of a complaint in any way.

Life University is committed to creating an environment that is free from sex-based discrimination, sexual harassment, and sexual violence. The university fosters a healthy campus climate and a campus that provides a safe space to learn, work, live and engage. The Title IX Office is dedicated to supporting the university’s efforts and compliance with the Title IX regulations.
