What is 第九条?
第九条 of the Education Amendments was passed by the U.S. Congress on June, 1972, and signed into law on July 1, 1972. It is a federal civil rights law that prohibits sex discrimination in education programs and activities such as:
- 招生
- Housing and facilities
- Courses and other educational activities
- Career guidance and counseling activities
- Financial aid
- 健康 and insurance benefits
- Scholastic, intercollegiate, club, or intramural athletics
Each school must designate at least one employee to evaluate current policy practices to ensure an institution's compliance with 第九条; coordinate efforts to effectively and efficiently respond to complaints of sex discrimination, including complaints of sexual harassment; and ensure as much as possible that every JU employee and student has an equal education and employment opportunities.
