Advice Needed: University Not Following Up With Title Ix

location: baltimore, md

hi everyone! so here is my situation. i am a senior at a university in baltimore. there has been a person who has been stalking and harassing me and my friends since 2024. i won't get into detail about what has been going on, but it's gotten to the point that one of my friends has a no contact order against the perp. we (me and my friends) have gone to not only our student accountability office, but also title ix. i have been told, by our title ix coordinator, that THE SCHOOL CANNOT TAKE ANY ACTION UNTIL THE PERP RESPONDS TO THE SCHOOL'S EMAILS ABOUT SETTING UP A MEETING. (which, frankly, i find ridiculous because what perpetrator would willingly respond to emails about a meeting from title ix?) she (the perp) was supposed to have a meeting in 2024 when this first started but completely skipped the meeting and hasn't responded to follow ups.

this is where it gets tricky. the perp has stated multiple times that she is neurodivergent, and she is registered with our school's disability services. it feels as if the school is pushing this behind the rug because of her disability and the not meeting.

what can i do? i want to pursue legal action against my school, but don't know where to start. i have done some googling but everything is overwhelming and is giving me multiple different answers. what would be the first step? i am about to graduate and some of my friends (who have graduated already!) are still dealing with this behavior. granted, idk how much you guys can do with that info, but i figured i'd throw this out there and see what i might get.

thank you all <3
