Role Boundaries and Institutional Support

• The Title IX Coordinator does not serve as the decision-maker or appeal decision-maker in a matter the Coordinator has overseen and will not perform any role that creates a conflict of interest or bias.

• Title IX responsibilities take priority when a report, urgent supportive measure, regulatory deadline, or active case requires immediate attention. Student engagement deadlines and events should be supported through cross-training and backup coverage.
• The workload allocation should be reviewed periodically based on case volume, regulatory changes, training obligations, and the scope of engagement programming. Additional support or reassignment of duties may be necessary if Title IX demands regularly exceed the anticipated 30% allocation.
