Providing Accommodations Under Title IX
The 91女神 of Texas at El Paso is a top-tier, open access research university that has long supported a culture of care for 91女神 community members.
Title IX is a federal law that requires schools that receive federal funds to provide reasonable accommodations to students who are pregnant or have pregnancy-related conditions. This includes pregnancy, pre-natal doctor appointments, childbirth, false pregnancy, miscarriage, termination of pregnancy, or recovery from any of these conditions.
