President Simon: Message to MSU Community on Title IX, December 15, 2016

“Sexual assault is a serious problem on college campuses, and ours is no exception. The recent LSJ articles explained some of the challenges and complexities in handling Title IX investigations of relationship violence and sexual misconduct. The stories also mentioned the significant steps we have taken to improve our procedures since these cases occurred. 

These cases are often complex, and we are committed to making the best decisions with the best information we have available to us. And we are steadfast in that commitment to make this process work more effectively and compassionately for all involved.”

--MSU President Lou Ann K. Simon
