Title IX provides protection from retaliation• Anyone can make a discrimination complaint without
worrying about retaliation by the university or your supervisor
• As an employee, you may not retaliate against a co-worker who raises a complaint
• We all have the right to raise a complaint or report a concern, and this right must be respected by everyone
