Campus Resources
Title IX is a federal law that prohibits sexual harassment, sexual violence, and discrimination on the basis of sex. Learn how to get help, make a report, and understand the Title IX investigation process at Texas A&M University here.
Sometimes survivors want to keep what happened to them private. You have many options for confidential help from campus counseling centers and local sexual assault service organizations.
You have the right to report a sexual assault to Texas A&M University, the police, both, or neither. On campus, some people, like counselors, are confidential resources, while other individuals are required to notify the school. If you disclose a sexual assault to other school employees, such as a professor, academic advisor, or resident advisor, they are usually required to notify the Title IX coordinator. Feel free to ask any support person or counselor about their ability to keep your conversation confidential. If you report the matter to police and your school, it is possible that two separate investigations will take place at the same time.
Texas A&M University can take interim measures to ensure your safety and comfort, even if no investigation takes place.
If you are a Texas A&M student who witnesses sexual harassment, sexual violence, or discrimination, you can also report a non-emergency incident anonymously at tellsomebody.tamu.edu/ .
