Fordham University has announced that they will be hiring Elizabeth Fanelli as the new Title IX Coordinator. Currently, Vice President for Student Affairs Michele Burris is serving as the interim Title IX Coordinator. According to Bob Howe, Associate Vice President for Media and Public Relations, there will be a transition period from Burris to Fanelli, due to ongoing Title IX cases.
According to their website, the department focuses on “ensuring the University complies with Fordham’s non-discrimination policy, including sexual misconduct and harassment, as well as the local, state and federal laws and regulations related to sexual violence/harassment in compliance with Gender Equity and Title IX.”
Fanelli previously served as the equity & compliance investigator and deputy Title IX coordinator at Ramapo College of New Jersey.
