Faust Says University Has Submitted Revised Sexual Assault Policy
At an Undergraduate Council forum, Harvard University President Drew G. Faust announced the submission of a revised sexual assault policy to the Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights, marking the first unified regulation across all Harvard schools. The policy update aligns with recent federal Title IX regulations and follows the establishment of a task force aimed at enhancing community awareness and prevention of sexual assault. Faust emphasized the importance of the entire Harvard community in preventing sexual violence. Despite appreciating the opportunity to engage with Faust, some students found her responses vague. Student groups like Our Harvard Can Do Better sought more concrete strategies for student involvement in policy reform.| Creator |
