Title IX Statement

It is the policy of Southern Virginia University to prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex in any of its educational programs or activities. This policy is in accordance with Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972.

Prohibited sex discrimination covers sexual harassment including sexual violence. Sexual harassment is conduct that is sexual in nature and is sufficiently severe, persistent, and pervasive that it adversely affects a student’s ability to benefit from the University’s activities or educational programs or creates a hostile or abusive educational environment. Sexual harassment may include rape, sexual assault, sexual battery, sexual coercion, unwanted touching, dating violence, and sexually motivated stalking.

If you encounter what you believe is unlawful sexual harassment or sex-based discrimination, please contact to the University Title IX Coordinator, Stephanie Hardy, at 540-261-4090 or stephanie.hardy@svu.edu

Additional information regarding the reporting of sexual violence, the resources that are available to victims of sexual violence, and grievance procedures is set forth at https://svu.edu/titleix/
