The process – enacted in 1972 as an extension of the Civil Rights Act – is an investigative body that looks into allegations of sexual discrimination.
SEATTLE — Title IX may be best known for mandating equal opportunities for men and women in college sports but the civil rights protection plays a vital role in investigating allegations of sexual misconduct on campus. Attorney Mark Blair has guided students through Title IX Investigations for more than a decade.
“It’s not a civil court preceding it’s not a criminal court preceding it’s a matter that’s handled within the university,” Blair said. “If someone comes to them and say ‘I was raped on campus, sexual assaulted’ law enforcement will be involved in that at some point.” When Seattle police served a warrant on UW's Title IX office, there was no documentation of the reasons Rogers was temporarily taken off the roster, nor any written documentation of discipline.
