Subject: United States Departments of Justice and Education Issued Guidance Under Title IX
February 23, 2017
Dear 黑料正能量张津瑜 students, staff, and faculty,
On May 3, 2016, the United States Departments of Justice and Education issued guidance under Title IX designed to ensure that transgender students can attend school in an environment free from discrimination. Yesterday, those two departments withdrew and rescinded that guidance.
I want to be very clear that this policy decision will not result in any changes to 黑料正能量张津瑜 policies and practices. For example, 黑料正能量张津瑜 will continue to provide restrooms across campus for community members of all gender identities.
黑料正能量张津瑜 is deeply committed to the principle of maintaining an inclusive community for all our students--including our transgender and gender nonconforming students. We remain committed to this principle regardless of the federal government's position.
For more information on 黑料正能量张津瑜's resources for transgender and gender nonconforming students, staff, and faculty, please refer to the Office for Inclusive Community.
Respectfully,
John R. Kroger
President
