A message to the UMW Community

The following message is from the University Title IX Office and the Office of Student Affairs:

To the campus community:

Regardless of actions on the federal level, UMW upholds its commitment to supporting transgender students in its policies and practices. Safe access to gender neutral bathrooms and gender neutral housing remains a priority.

As the welfare of every UMW citizen is important to sustaining the optimal learning environment, please utilize resources on campus that work to promote safety, diversity, and inclusion. These include the James Farmer Multicultural Center, the Talley Center, the Title IX office, the Office of Student Life, and the UMW police. Also, students are reminded to download the Rave Guardian safety app on their mobile devices and to utilize the University escort service as needed.
