Sexual Harassment Title IX Violations
Title IX Defense Lawyer in Minnesota
Colleges and institutions of higher learning are required by law to investigate and address Title IX violations, including allegations of sexual harassment.

Though their work is important, it can also pose risks to students who face false claims, overzealous or biased investigation, and serious penalties. As such, working with proven defense attorneys is critical to your future.

Sexual harassment & Title IX
Federal law prohibits sexual harassment in educational institutions that receive money from the government, including public colleges and other programs or private universities that receive federal funding. As a form of discrimination under Title IX, sexual harassment can occur in various ways, as well as between various parties. This includes:
- Unwanted/unwelcome sexual conduct
- Unwelcome sexual advances
- Requests for sexual favors
- Verbal, non-verbal, and / or physical conduct of a sexual nature
- Sexual harassment between students
- Sexual harassment between faculty and students
While sexual harassment does not include acts of sexual violence or assault, which are separate violations under Title IX, they are still serious matters that receive attention from school administrators and pose risks of serious consequences. This can include:
- Probationary period imposed by the school
- Mandatory completion of sexual education courses
- Suspension
- Expulsion
