The Title IX Coordinator and Deputy Title IX Coordinators are available to facilitate academic accommodations with faculty and review both on- and off-campus emotional, psychological, medical, and safety resources.
Below are some of the most commonly requested resources by our community members.

Prior to taking any further action, the Title IX Coordinator or Deputy Title IX Coordinator will request to meet with the impacted party, or Complainant, and give their wishes thorough consideration.
