4040.  NONDISCRIMINATION ON THE BASIS OF SEX IN EDUCATION 
PROGRAMS OR ACTIVITIES RECEIVING FEDERAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

Priority: Substantive, Nonsignificant

Legal Authority: 20 USC 1681 to 1683; 20 USC 1685 to 1688

CFR Citation: 45 CFR 618

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: On June 17, 1980, NSF and other agencies published a proposed 
regulation to implement the requirements of title IX of the Education 
Amendments of 1972, as amended, which prohibits discrimination on the 
basis of an individual's sex in federally assisted educational 
programs. That regulation was never issued in final form. As a result 
of subsequent statutory amendments, it was necessary to revise the 
prior proposed title IX regulation and begin a new rulemaking process. 
The regulation was published as a common rule with other agencies that 
need title IX regulations.
