Today's topic gets really interesting when it impacts Title IX. Joining us today to explain the CHIPS Act of 2022 and how it might impact you are Joe Storch and Andrea Stagg with Grand River Solutions. During today's discussion, our guests distill the role and implications of the Act, and what it means for compliance. We touch on institutional reporting, and the three big agencies promulgating the rules. You'll hear how the incredibly low rate of reporting on sexual harassment impacts procedure, along with some innovative solutions for the problem. We talk about the role of Sponsored Programs Officers and in-house support for Title IX Coordinators, and discuss the expected timeline for new regulations to go live. We hope you join us today to hear all this and more from these two passionate experts here to equip you with the knowledge you need. Thanks for tuning in!
