Title IX Concerns

Title IX is a federal civil rights law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance.

Richland Community College is committed to upholding Title IX by maintaining a healthy, safe educational and working environment for every person involved with our institution. The College’s policy prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, marital or parental status, national origin or ancestry, age, mental and/or physical disabilities (except where they are bona fide occupational qualifications), sexual orientation, gender identity, military or veteran status, or other legally protected characteristics or conduct.

The College’s nondiscrimination policy applies to the admission and retention of students, recruitment, employment, and retention of faculty and staff, and access to and treatment in the College’s programs and activities.
