What is Title IX

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is a comprehensive federal law that applies to any institution receiving federal financial assistance from the Department of Education, including state and local educational agencies. The law protects individuals from discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs or activities that receive federal financial assistance, which states:

“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.”

As a member of the Mount Aloysius College community, you have the right to be protected from sex discrimination under Title IX. We are committed to ensuring that our members who have experienced sexual violence, including sexual assault, dating/domestic violence, stalking, or sexual harassment, have a network of support and resources available to them.
