This summer two reports were released regarding the CSU’s Title IX programs, which detailed  how 23 campuses and the Chancellor’s Office handled complaints of harassment. Both reports found some troubling concerns with  the way CSU manages these issues.

The first report released was from Cozen O’Connor, a law firm hired by the CSU to conduct the assessment. It found a lack of consistency across campuses with guidelines for handling discrimination and harassment. The report also recommended hiring more staff to better accommodate the volume of reports to ensure they are resolved in a timely manner.

The second report, a state audit ordered by the Joint Legislative Audit Committee following Castro's resignation, found even more damning problems. Namely, over a quarter of the cases reviewed in the audit were closed without investigations despite warranting action.

In response to the O’Connor report, President Wood released a statement via email stating Sac State would be putting together an implementation team in an effort to apply the recommendations it gave.
