VAWA/Title IX For Alumni Volunteers

As a comment, the non-socials which went co-ed in the 1970s (either directly or indirectly due to Title IX) are likely to have a significantly different viewpoint as to what Title IX is having dealt with it quite some time ago.

I'm specifically wanting to discuss sexual assault prevention measures and investigations, part of the most recent round of VAWA legislation.

We had a forum on this at our summer volunteer leadership conference that included university professionals.

It was eye-opening and I was unaware of some of the university reporting requirements (and specifically how the role of a volunteer in such an issue could change if they were also employed by the university).

It's just another area where we really need to train up volunteers to know what the process is, how to report incidents, when to do it, etc. We're moving to a world where reporting to your Greek Life office that "we handled internally" is probably not acceptable.
