Overview of the webinar

Sexual violence, including harassment and rape, often goes underreported on university and college campuses. But even when higher education institutions are informed of sexual misconduct, they too often fail to abide by Title IX and the Clery Act laws in addressing the issue. And that failure can lead to a loss of federal funding.
