The Honorable Betsy DeVos, Secretary of Education
Mr. Kenneth L. Marcus, J.D., Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights
U.S. Department of Education
400 Maryland Ave. SW
Washington, DC 20202
Dear Secretary DeVos and Assistant Secretary Marcus:
As faculty, staff, and students who teach and study women’s and gender issues and offer resources to students through women’s centers, we have long been engaged in efforts to address gender-based violence on college campuses. As members of the National Women’s Studies Association (NWSA), one of the largest academic associations in North America, we also see firsthand how critical civil rights laws are to ensuring a safe educational environment for our students. Many of us have supported victims of sexual harassment and misconduct and can testify that sex- and gender-based discrimination can impede access to educational opportunities, derail an education, and damage a student’s future.
We therefore write to express our serious concerns about the Department of Education’s (ED) draft Title IX regulations as leaked on September 13, 2018, as well as the report of a separate leaked memorandum in which the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) proposes to redefine “sex” as a person’s binary sex assigned at birth.
Far from ensuring equal educational opportunity for all students regardless of sex, these draft regulations would make all students in schools across the country—but especially trans* and gender non-binary people, and cisgender women and girls—more vulnerable to harassment and other forms of discrimination. This unequal treatment is a form of discrimination itself, and does not achieve the result that was intended when Congress passed and President Nixon signed Title IX in 1972.
Sexual harassment should never be the end of anyone’s education. Yet we live in a nation where nearly 1 in 4 transgender and gender-nonconforming students, more than 1 in 5 women, and nearly 1 in 18 men are sexually assaulted during their time in college. Even higher numbers of students are verbally sexually harassed; more than 60% of all students report experiencing verbal sexual harassment during college.
Providing strong protections for victims of sexual assault is in the best interest of all students, regardless of race, color, and ethnicity. Evidence suggests that women students of color are disproportionately targeted for sexual harassment and violence, but are often invisible in the national conversation about such abusive conduct.
Providing strong protections for victims of sexual assault is in the best interest of all students, regardless of sex or gender; multiple studies have showed that men and boys are far more likely to be victims of sexual assault than to be falsely accused of it.
Providing strong protections for victims of sexual assault is in the best interest of all students, regardless of class or economic status. The stories of survivors who end up dropping out of school because they do not feel safe on campus are too numerous to count; some are expelled for lower grades in the wake of their trauma, and many bear the burden of student loans for an unfinished education.
The leaked proposed rules would significantly weaken the protections for victims of sexual harassment and assault.
Here are just some of the reasons:
The leaked proposed rules are far out of step with the general public’s views on sexual harassment. The American public overwhelmingly agrees that strong Title IX protections are necessary to ensure student survivors’ equal access to education. Of the over 12,000 people who submitted comments to ED last fall regarding Title IX, 99% supported Title IX and 96% explicitly urged the Department to preserve its 2011 Dear Colleague Letter on sexual violence. They were joined by more than 150,000 other individuals who signed petitions and statements that were delivered to ED in January through September 2017 in support of Title IX and the 2011 guidance. And this support was expressed before the #MeToo movement and other high profile examples of public opposition to sexual harassment in the last year.
The threat to Title IX protections for non-genderconforming students shows a similar disconnect with public opinion. The HHS proposal to narrow the definition of "sex" to a person's binary sex assigned at birth, which would undermine the goals of Title IX by harming all students who fail to conform to rigid gender stereotypes and by exacerbating the violence and discrimination directed at transgender, non‑binary, and intersex people, ignores the fact that a 2018 survey of global attitudes towards transgender people shows that a strong majority (60%) of people around the world and a majority (51%) of Americans want their country to do more to protect and support transgender people, who are uniquely vulnerable to sexual harassment and violence. At school, 84% of transgender students report that they were harassed because of their gender, and those who persevere are more likely to miss or drop out of school and to have significantly lower GPAs. Now, more than ever, ED must not turn its back on student survivors and gender-minority students.
We call on ED to refrain from publishing a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking until it has fully engaged with student survivors; gender-minority students; civil rights advocates; and educators; and incorporated their concerns into any regulations ED may then seek to propose.
We urge ED not to ignore the overwhelming majority of Americans who supported the 2011 and 2014 guidances on sexual violence and the overwhelming number of education and child health experts who supported the 2016 guidance on the rights of transgender students that Secretary DeVos and Attorney General Sessions rescinded in 2017.
We urge ED not to further deprive student survivors and gender-minority students of equal protection of the law. Title IX was passed over 40 years ago with the goal of ensuring equal educational opportunity. Few, if any, civil rights statutes have received as much overwhelming, bipartisan support as has Title IX.
We call on the Department of Education to honor that support, to do the job delegated to it by Title IX, and to take seriously the work of ensuring safe, non-discriminatory educational environments for all.
