Important! Please review the following section regarding your rights under
Title IX and sign below:
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is a federal civil rights law that
prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex against any person in education
programs and activities receiving federal funding. Sexual misconduct, including
sexual assault, domestic and dating violence, and stalking, are considered severe
forms of sexual discrimination. Please be aware that under Title IX, UCM
employees are required to report to UCM’s Title IX Coordinator any
time they become aware of possible sexual misconduct. Your Title IX
Coordinator can help maintain your privacy while providing you with assistance
and support. Your Title IX Coordinator is also available to explain and discuss
your right to file a criminal complaint; the University’s relevant complaint process,
and your right to receive assistance with that process, including the investigation
process; how confidentiality is handled; available resources, both on and off
campus; and other related matters.
I
hereby certify that I have read the above section regarding my rights
under Title IX, and acknowledge that if the circumstances surrounding
my request for a dependency override are related to sexual misconduct,
the Office of Student Financial Services will be required to report this
information to UCM’s Title IX Coordinator.
