Government Document of the Month for March

The Document of the Month for March features an important Federal Law  celebrating 40 years of success.  In 1972, Congress passed the Title IX law  which states:  “No person in the U.S. shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any educational program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”  For more information on this important law, check out the display on Title IX located on the first floor of the library in the Government Document section.
