Data estimates 11.2% of college students experience sexual assault at some point during their postsecondary education. The prevalence of this issue and the resulting impact on students' lives and educational outcomes highlights the importance of examining the role of federal, state and institutional action in preventing and addressing issues of campus safety. Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972 serves as the foundational federal law regarding sex discrimination at institutions receiving federal dollars. New regulations proposed by the U.S. Department of Education, if passed, would likely change how higher education institutions address campus sexual assault relative to definitions, reporting requirements and disciplinary proceeding allowances. State statute also serves an important role in directing campus safety intervention strategies. Through legislation, states are promoting policy and programmatic efforts to educate, prevent and respond to issues related to postsecondary campus sexual assault. This Policy Snapshot highlights activity in the 2019 legislative sessions, and bills largely fall into three content areas: (1) Awareness and prevention; (2) Reporting guidelines and procedures; and (3) Assessment and accountability.
