Update on Title IX Regulations

A court ruling recently rescinded the 2024 Title IX regulations and guidance issued by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights on January 31, 2025 requires that all colleges and universities follow the 2020 Title IX regulations. This policy is currently undergoing revisions, but adheres to the principles and requirements of the 2020 Title IX regulations. For policy-specific questions and guidance, please consult with the Title IX office.

Promoting Safety and Equity

Upon notice, Adelphi University will act to end the discrimination, harassment or retaliation, prevent its recurrence, and remedy its effects on the victim and our community. Our Title IX Office is here to:

Receive, manage, and investigate reports of sexual misconduct from the community
Implement appropriate measures to restore equity
Oversee and facilitate Adelphi’s Formal and Informal Grievance processes
Educate the Adelphi Community about their rights and resources on and off campus
