A communication from the Department of Higher Education (see Section 168E(q) of Chapter 6 of the General Laws) on campus sexual misconduct incident data annual report for calendar years 2022 and 2023

This bill requires the Massachusetts Department of Higher Education to issue a communication (report) on campus sexual misconduct incident data for calendar years 2022 and 2023. It directly affects public and private higher education institutions in Massachusetts, which must submit data on reported incidents to the Department. The bill specifies that the report must include anonymous incident data collected under existing law (M.G.L. c. 6, § 168E(q)). This is a procedural requirement for annual data reporting, not a new policy change. The bill was placed on file in June 2025, indicating it did not advance further.
