Oregon Title IX Violations Lawyers
What are Considered Title 9 Violations in Oregon?
Title IX is a federal law which holds higher education institutions to a certain standard of providing students of all genders a neutral environment on college campuses. This law has enabled more female athletes’ opportunities to participate in intercollegiate sports and to obtain the same amount of scholarships as their male counterparts.
Gender-based discrimination means schools must investigate reported cases, discipline, and even aid in convicting students who are guilty of a campus-related sex crime. Students can be suspended, expelled, or criminally prosecuted for their actions if found guilty.
Sexual misconduct includes:
- Sexual Assault
- Sexual Harassment
- Stalking
- Domestic Abuse
If you currently attend a college or university in Oregon, you have committed a significant amount of time and effort to get where you are today. Obtaining a degree from a higher education institution enables you to pursue a career with the proper qualifications.
