<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">We wanted to share the information below about an event held by the Title IX Student Advisory Committee on why and how to write a comment on the proposed Title IX changes. I know it may seem far away from us but the
<b>changes will impact how MIT handles Title IX cases</b> (sex discrimination, sexual harassment and assault, etc.) to some extent so it's important that we voice our opinions! We hope to see many of you there! Please share with anyone you think would be interested.
The flyer is attached. </div>
