Office of Title IX Compliance
Title IX and other federal and state laws collectively prohibit discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender expression, pregnant or parenting status, and LGBTQ+ identity. These laws impose legal requirements and protections that serve as a foundation from which Bradley University has created policies, practices, services, and programs that work in concert to advance equity for students, staff, and faculty of all identities.
The Office of Title IX Compliance serves as the University’s central resource for addressing and preventing gender-based discrimination, sexual harassment, and violence issues experienced by all members of the Bradley community. We are committed to creating educational programming for a variety of audiences, providing a range of supportive measures, conducting impartial and trauma-informed investigations of complaints, facilitating informal resolutions, and ensuring compliance with state and federal mandates. We encourage all campus community members to increase their awareness, prevent violence where they can, and foster a culture of safety and respect.
