Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex, gender-based harassment, sexual misconduct, domestic or dating violence, and stalking.
The law includes prohibits discrimination based on pregnancy, childbirth, false pregnancy, termination of pregnancy, or recovery from any of these conditions.
The University makes adjustments to the education program or activities that are reasonable and responsive to a student or employee’s temporary pregnancy status. Title IX requires a recipient to provide the same special services to a pregnant student that it provides to students with temporary medical conditions. Adjustments or requests are assessed on a case-by-case basis with interactive dialogue between the faculty/staff member and the student.
Faculty or staff are required to report any requests for adjustments to titleix@cbu.edu.
