A new unit - the WVU Division of Campus Engagement and Compliance - has been established with a redefined mission. This unit will focus on ensuring the University adheres to federal and state guidance and fulfilling the needs of our campus community, including compliance with Title IX and the Americans with Disabilities Act which is its primary focus. This is not a rebranding, but a shift in focus that will align with the Governor´s directive.Once the University´s review is complete, administrators will have a better understanding of the impact and will provide more specific, unit-level guidance at that time. The University is committed to keeping the WVU community informed throughout this process and will continue to provide regular communication and feedback as it works to ensure it is in compliance with any and all obligations.</blockquote>
