Sex Crimes Now a Title IX Issue for Universities
Brett Sokolow is the executive director of ATIXA (The
Association of Title IX Administrators). He also serves as outside counsel for
Oklahoma.
On Wednesday, it was discovered that OU starting linebacker
Frank Shannon was included in a Title IX sexual misconduct allegation report.
Sokolow could not go into details surrounding any specific
case, but he said he has trust in OU's handling of the situation.
"For two years, I've served the university as an
outside counsel," said Sokolow, who is also president and CEO of the
NCHERM Group, a law and consulting firm focused on systems-level solutions for
safer schools and campuses.
"We worked very hard to craft policy and procedures
very much compliant with federal standards ... the staff has undergone a ton of
training and I have a lot of faith and confidence in them."
