AASA Submits Comments on New Proposed Title IX Regulations

Today, AASA sent comments to the U.S. Department of Education on the revised Title IX regulations that were proposed in June. Our comments expressed deep concerns with the financial and administrative burden the proposed regulation would place on districts and the importance of an extended timeline to implement the new regulations. The comment also praised the new flexibilities proposed to the current Title IX regulatory framework that will simplify and streamline Title IX investigations and resolutions.

A brief summary of the proposed regulations is available  here.  AASA also produced a template comment, so superintendents can directly weigh in on the Title IX regulations as well. As of today there have been over 150,000 comments, mainly opposing, the new regulations field.
