2024 Title IX Educational Series: Expansion of Title IX Protections and Definitions

As Title IX Coordinators, you have likely already started to brace yourself for the anticipated sweeping changes to the Title IX regulations. As the designated Title IX leader for your campus, you are responsible not only for updating your policies and procedures, but also for communicating those changes thoughtfully and effectively with students, faculty, staff, and members of your Title IX team.   Join us for an engaged discussion about the practical steps you can start implementing right away as the clock starts ticking—before you need to ensure compliance with the law. Our expert panel will share practical recommendations and their analysis of the new law, as well as how they effectively prepared their campus communities for the changes that lie ahead.   

Developing a Comprehensive System of Support for First-Generation Students 

Many college campuses are celebrating the fact that their first-generation (“first-gen”) undergraduate student population has grown exponentially in the past five years, with some reporting 24-40% of their student body identifying as first-gen. However, we know that institutional and external barriers, such as varying definitions of “first-gen” and the hidden curriculum, can create roadblocks on the path toward graduation.    This virtual conference is designed to give you a variety of tools to better support your first-gen population and give them the best chance for success. Our speakers will highlight their own experiences and approaches in responding to the needs of first-gen students. They will also discuss the strengths that first-gen undergraduates bring to our campuses and address ways that institutions can proactively meet first-generation students where they are. You will learn how to:      Throughout these two days, we will examine comprehensive models of how institutions can help their first-gen undergraduate students thrive on campus and complete their degrees. The speakers bring a proven and diverse set of perspectives from each of their unique backgrounds. You will learn what first-gen students need to succeed and will begin creating or improving your support system for your first-gen students.

Preparing for Difficult Conversations as Faculty 

Whether through conflicts in research groups, having to negotiate boundaries around service, or dealing with academic dishonesty in students, faculty can often be confronted with the need for difficult conversations. But even knowing there is a need, it is all too easy to avoid the hard conversations due to overwhelming emotions, discomfort with conflict, or fear of the situation escalating. Preparing for difficult conversations beforehand can therefore help faculty feel more of a sense of control over the situation as well as helping to manage their internal narrative.   Join us for a one-hour training on how to prepare for difficult conversations as faculty. Drawing from Anita Kite’s work in Managing Difficult Conversations as Faculty, we will walk through the four precautions in preparation, including:   You will have the chance to reflect on how you would respond to some specific scenarios, and to plan for any difficult conversations you may need to have using helpful tips and strategies.
