Title IX Conference Nov. 4-5, 2014

Over the past three years, colleges and universities have increased their focus on ensuring institutional responsiveness to sexual assaults on campus. Federal mandates have reinforced these efforts and ensured compliance with uniform standards throughout the country.

On November 4 and 5, 2014, the University of Florida will host a workshop to discuss effective institutional practices that go beyond compliance in order to support holistic and compassionate campus responses. The workshop is titled “The Integrated and Coordinated Approach to Sexual Misconduct: Understanding the Intersection of Title IX, the Clery Act and the Campus SaVE Act” and will feature former sex crime prosecutors and educators Gina Maisto Smith and Leslie M. Gomez of the law firm of Pepper Hamilton LLP, which represents colleges and universities throughout the country.
