{"abstract":"The Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights, U.S. Department of Education (Department), is proposing to issue a new document that would replace the 1997 document entitled \"Sexual Harassment Guidance: Harassment of Students by School Employees, Other Students, or Third Parties,\" issued by the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) on March 13, 1997 (1997 guidance). We are revising the guidance in limited respects in light of recent Supreme Court cases relating to sexual harassment in schools. We intend the proposed revised guidance to serve the same purpose as the 1997 guidance. It continues to provide educational institutions with guidance about the standards under Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX) that we use, and that institutions should use, to investigate and resolve allegations of sexual harassment of students. We request from all interested parties written comments on the portions of the guidance revised to address the Supreme Court decisions.","action":"Request for comments.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION","name":"Education Department","id":126,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/education-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/126","parent_id":null,"slug":"education-department"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2000/11/02/00-27910.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"65 FR 66092","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2000-12-04","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"We must receive your comments on or before December 4, 2000.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":[],"dockets":[],"document_number":"00-27910","effective_on":null,"end_page":66114,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"explanation":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2000/11/02/00-27910.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/11/02/00-27910/revised-sexual-harassment-guidance-harassment-of-students-by-school-employees-other-students-or","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/00-27910?publication_date=2000-11-02","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2000-11-02/00-27910/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":23,"page_views":{"count":841,"last_updated":"2026-04-04 16:15:04 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-11-02/pdf/00-27910.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"2000-11-02","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2000/11/02/00-27910.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2011-02-27T16:33:01Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":66092,"subtype":null,"title":"Revised Sexual Harassment Guidance: Harassment of Students by School Employees, Other Students, or Third Parties","toc_doc":"Sexual harassment guidance; harassment of students by school employees, other students, or third parties; comment request","toc_subject":"Reports and guidance documents; availability, etc.:","topics":[],"type":"Notice","volume":65}
