It’s the first annual report released by the office to inform the community about efforts to combat sexual misconduct and relationship violence on campus.

“We believe the increase in reports is a result of efforts at MSU to raise awareness, rather than an increase in incidents,” Title IX Coordinator Jessica Norris said in a press release. “This is consistent with data from the National College Health Assessment that shows MSU students have the highest level of awareness regarding sexual assault and relationship violence among all participating universities.”

According the report, there were 461 complaints filed and 378 were not investigated for various reasons. The office was created in April 2015 to handle sexual misconduct and discrimination complaints through the Title IX Office.

There were 31 sanctions with outcomes varying from probation to expulsion. Of those, 23 cases were students, four were university employees, three were faculty and one was not affiliated with the university.

MSU programs and training statistics were also represented int the report. 

In 2015, 97 percent of students took part in online training on relationship violence and sexual misconduct in addition to 92 percent of MSU employees.

Sexual Assault and Relationship Violence Prevention Program, or SARV, workshops had 6,121 freshmen and transfer students attend.

The Greeks Take the Lead program in spring 2016 included 31 different programs with sororities and fraternities, had more than 900 participants.
