Two hours of Beyond Compliance (BC) training are required of all staff every fiscal year, and strongly encouraged for Tenure Track/Full-Time Non Tenure-Track faculty. This initiative keeps the university compliant with Title IX of the federal Education Amendments of 1972, and The Campus SaVE Act, part of the 2013 reauthorized Violence Against Women Act.
