Title IX Notice

Denison is committed to providing an educational environment free from sex discrimination, consistent with Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in educational programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance. Denison does not discriminate on the basis of sex in the education programs or activities that it operates, including but not limited to admissions, recruitment, academics, student services, athletics, financial aid, and employment. Sex discrimination includes sexual harassment, sexual violence, and any other misconduct based on sex that denies or limits a person's ability to participate in or benefit from educational programs or activities. Denison also prohibits retaliation against those who report sex discrimination, including those who report administrators and other employees, and Denison will investigate any alleged retaliation for participation in the Title IX process.

Denison encourages anyone who has been subjected to or becomes aware of sex discrimination, sexual harassment, or any other sex- or gender-based offense to report the incident promptly to the Title IX Coordinator or one of the Deputy Title IX Coordinators. Reports may be submitted verbally, in writing, or by email, and the appropriate staff will respond promptly.

Title IX Coordinator: Justin Brown, Director of Civil Rights & Title IX and Senior Advisor to the President, brownjm@denison.edu.

All members of the Denison community are responsible for reviewing and adhering to the Sex Discrimination and Sexual Misconduct Policy. Additional information on Denison’s commitment to Title IX can be found on our Title IX website.
