Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972

Title IX requires that all educational institutions that receive federal funds or financial assistance must prohibit sex discrimination in their educational programs and activities. These provisions apply to all programs and activities, including recruitment, student admissions, financial assistance, housing, access to academic offerings, and athletics. The Office for Institutional Equity & Diversity is responsible for implementing and monitoring NC State University's Title IX compliance. The Vice Provost for Equal Opportunity & Equity is the University's designated Title IX Coordinator.

NC State University is obligated to:

• provide assurances that all educational programs and activities are in compliance with Title IX;
• designate a Title IX coordinator to oversee compliance efforts;
• establish procedures to resolve student and employee Title IX complaints;
• provide notification to students and employees that sex discrimination is prohibited within its programs and activities;
• ensure that all administrators, mangers, deans, and chairs familiarize themselves with and implement Title IX provisions.
