Dear Mr. President:
Eleva
On June 17, 1997, the 25th anniversary of Title IX of the
Education Amendments of 1972, as amended ("Title IX"). you
directed executive departments and agencies to reinvigorate the
enforcement of Title IX, and stated your intention to issue an
Executive order prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race,
national origin, and sex in federally conducted education and
training programs. Given the incomplete data then available on
the types of education and training programs conducted by the
Federal government, you also directed executive departments and
agencies to submit to the Department of Justice ("Department") an
inventory of their education and training programs in order that
the Department could review such material and prepare an
appropriate order. The purpose of this letter is to provide a
summary of actions to date with respect to the initiative on
federally conducted education and training programs
läsency" rasences")
In mid-July, Isabelle Katz Pinzler, Acting Assistant
Attorney General, Civil Rights Division, issued a memorandum to
93 executive departments and agencies that provided guidance and
instructions on their preparation of an inventory of federally
conducted education and training programs. In addition, the
Civil Rights Division, which is coordinating this effort, has
provided extensive advice by telephone to agency staff on a wide
range of matters, including guidance or clarification as to
whether certain programs should be reported.
At this time, we are pleased to report that we have received
submissions from all but a few agencies, and that a few others
are providing additional data to complete their reports. Given
the complexity of this task and the summer holidays the majority
of agencies were diligent in their efforts to collect data from
the multiple offices or entities within the agency.
