Episode 50: Title IX

We hear a lot about Title IX, but how much do we really understand about it? What role does the Title IX office play in our lives at the SOM? We sit down with Ms. Mikhel Kushner, JD, MSW, who is the Title IX Coordinator and Executive Director for Diversity and Inclusion at the University of Maryland, Baltimore to learn more about how, when, where, and why to report discriminatory behavior based on sex and gender.
