The Assessment Report
In March 2022, the Board of Trustees of the California State University (CSU), through the Office of the Chancellor, engaged Cozen O’Connor to conduct a systemwide assessment of the CSU’s implementation of its programs to prevent and address discrimination, harassment, and retaliation (DHR) based on protected statuses, including sex and gender (under Title IX).1 The goal of the engagement is to strengthen CSU’s institutional culture by assessing current practices and providing insights, recommendations, and resources to advance CSU's Title IX and DHR training, awareness, prevention, intervention, compliance, and support systems.
