Abstract: The U.S. Department of Education (the Department)
published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for the Nondiscrimination on
the Basis of Sex in Education Programs or Activities Receiving Federal
Financial Assistance (title IX NPRM) to propose amendments to the
Department's implementing regulations for title IX of the Education
Amendments of 1972. The Department's proposed regulations would require
a recipient to maintain various documents regarding its title IX
activities for a period of at least seven years. These requirements are
specified in proposed 34 CFR 106.8(f). Recipients impacted by the
proposed regulations include local educational agencies, institutes of
higher education and other entities that receive Federal grant funds
from the Department. The information collected would allow recipients
and the Department to assess on a longitudinal basis whether a
recipient is complying with the Department's title IX regulations when
it is has information about sex discrimination, the prevalence of sex
discrimination affecting access to a recipient's education program or
activity, and whether additional or different training is necessary for
the recipient to fulfill its obligations under title IX.
