Mercer University has a new Title IX coordinator. Brittany Raygoza took over the position Aug. 8, said Kyle Sears, director of media relations, in an e-mail.
Raygoza replaces Melissa Nunn, the university’s former Title IX coordinator, who left the job July 15 to accept the Title IX coordinator position at the University of Florida, according to an email from Nunn.
Raygoza comes to Mercer from Arizona State University where she served as an advocacy coordinator and assisted with Title IX cases. She has undergraduate and graduate degrees in criminal justice from Arizona State, Sears said.
“Ms. Raygoza is well-qualified to provide leadership for [Mercer’s] Title IX initiatives,” Sears said.
Mercer University’s Title IX coordinator is responsible for organizing the university’s compliance with sex-based discrimination laws and regulations on a federal and state level, according to Mercer’s Title IX website.
