Speaker: Christi Hurt, Chair of the Title IX Task Force and Director of Carolina Women’s Center
March 21, 2014 at 12:15 – 1:15 pm in Toy Lounge, Dey Hall.
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 protects people from discrimination based on sex in education programs and activities that receive federal financial assistance. Examples of the types of discrimination that are covered under Title IX include sexual harassment, the failure to provide equal opportunity in athletics, and discrimination based on pregnancy. In the decades since the Amendment passed, the federal government continues to develop guidance about how schools can meet the essential elements of Title IX, including the specific provisions regarding campus safety and the prevention of and response to sexual harassment and violence. Last year, the UNC community firmly requested another look at our efforts on campus to eliminate sexual harassment and better serve those who are impacted by it in all of its forms. The Title IX Task Force was appointed to address all related conduct, maintain compliance with these regulations, and determine how UNC could move forward.

Prospects for Gender Equality in a Challenging Economy
A talk featuring Dr. Maxine Eichner, UNC School of Law
Tuesday, March 23, 2010
12:30 p.m. to 2 p.m.
Pleasants Family Room, Wilson Library
Claims that gender equality has been achieved now abound. “It’s a Woman’s Nation and that changes everything,” Maria Shriver recently declared. Women now constitute more than half of the American work force, and the vast majority of women contribute income to the family economy. Indeed, the recession is accelerating this trend as women attempt to mitigate job losses mostly experienced by men. But has the gender playing field really been leveled?
This talk will examine the status of gender equality and explore the continuing dynamics among work, gender, and families. It will compare, as well, the United States’ approach to these issues with those of other countries. Please feel free to bring your lunch.
