Campus Sexual Assault

Legal Rights and Remedies for Student Victims of Campus Sexual Assault                                 

This presentation covers legal rights, under Title IX and other laws, for student survivors of sexual assault on campus. Legal Momentum aims to clarify the responsibilities Title IX imposes on schools to respond to complaints of sexual assault and provide accommodations for survivors. The presentation emphasizes that despite changes to federal Department of Education guidance, the law itself remains unchanged.
