POLICY TITLE IX, 2.303/1510/18Title IX
Title IX is a portion of the Education Amendments of 1972 with an emphasis on equal opportunities in education. In accordance with this law, Carl Sandburg College prohibits the discrimination of any person from participation or being denied benefits in any educational program or activity receiving federal assistance on the basis of race, color, religious affiliation, gender (sex), sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national origin, ancestry, genetic information, age, disability, arrest record status, marital or family status, citizenship status, military status, unfavorable military discharge, sexual harassment, order of protection status and status in any group protected by applicable federal, state and/or local law.
The Campus Sexual Violence Act (Campus SAVE) was signed into law in March 2013 as a new amendment to the Violence Against Women Act of 1994. This
act requires college campuses to provide information, training and ongoing prevention and awareness programs to combat sexual violence. The State of Illinois passed a new law, Preventing Sexual Violence in Higher Education Act (110 ILCS 155) effective August 1, 2016, that amends other Illinois campus safety laws to address the critical issues of sexual violence, domestic violence, dating violence and stalking in higher education.
