AAUP Response to Final Title IX Regulations

In April, the US Department of Education released its final regulations under Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972. The AAUP had submitted comments in September 2022 on the proposed revisions to the regulations in response to the secretary of education’s 2022 request. As the AAUP noted in our comments, changes in Title IX regulations should be assessed according to whether they advance the Title IX mission and for their impact on broader equity goals in postsecondary education. In the following response by the AAUP, we identify areas where the department’s final regulations advance these equity goals and where they fall short.
