What is Title IX?

Title IX is a federal law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex or gender.

Sex discrimination includes sexual harassment, sexual violence, and any other sex-based misconduct, relationship violence, discrimination based on pregnancy, and the failure to provide equal opportunity in all areas of schooling such as admissions, educational programs or activities, and athletics.

A more detailed description of the conduct prohibited under Title IX is available on UWM’s Title IX website.
