Christi Hurt experienced a baptism by fire when she joined the campus safety team at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill as the first full‐time Title IX Coordinator for the campus. Hurt, now the Vice President for Strategic Initiatives at Margolis Healy and Associates and Cozen O'Connor's Institutional Response Group, said one of her first assignments as the Title IX Coordinator was to chair the campuswide Sexual Assault Task Force to come up with new university policies prohibiting sexual misconduct. “It was the greatest experience of my professional career,” Hurt said.
