LUOA Title IX

Sexual Harassment and Interpersonal Violence Policy

Liberty University prohibits discrimination on the basis of gender for all faculty, staff, and students.

This includes harassment and assault.

As a parent or guardian of a Liberty University Online Academy student, we want to make sure that you and your student are aware of your student’s rights under Title IX.

How will these issues be handled?

If a student shares about an experience with a teacher, or a teacher becomes aware of a situation where a student is being harmed due to gender, the teacher must inform the appropriate school administration and will inform the parents, as well.

Our goal is to assure that students are able to take full advantage of their academic opportunities.

This information will only be shared with necessary campus officials and parents of minors.

Please watch the following videos that explain Title IX and how it protects your students. Please share this information with your students at your discretion.
