Solutions for Academic Institutions

T&M's custom solutions cater to the unique needs of the following institutions:

• Primary & Secondary Schools At primary and secondary schools, T&M conducts outside independent investigations into reported allegations of sexual misconduct and other harassment behaviors and develops and/or revises schools’ harassment policies for administrators, clergy, faculty and students. T&M offers specific and integrated steps that enable schools to enhance reporting and response and improve safety. In addition, T&M analyzes existing training programs, develops an enhanced training curriculum and delivers training to administrators, faculty, clergy, students and parents with the goal of achieving not just compliance with the school’s policy, but a “gold standard” of diligence.
• Colleges & Universities For colleges and universities, T&M evaluates and recommends revisions to policies, procedures and practices for preventing, investigating and remediating sex-based harassment and integrating the many requirements of Title IX and VAWA into their policies, procedures, training for staff and education for students. T&M also conducts outside independent investigations into reported allegations of school policy violations.
• Athletic Departments & Leagues In light of the influence, power and position of trust wielded by coaches and other members of athletic staff at academic institutions, T&M believes it is important to set forth guidelines to cultivate a safe and positive environment for student-athletes. T&M works with school athletic departments and leagues on the primary school, secondary school and collegiate levels to define appropriate behavior and conduct, and to subsequently develop school athletic policies, evaluate and provide recommendations on athletic department handbooks, advise on appropriate training and education for both student-athletes and athletic department staff and deliver training and educational presentations for athletes and athletic department personnel.
