## Advisory Scaffolding

Skills that touch legally sensitive areas — research compliance, Title IV appeals, Title IX, student conduct, academic integrity, tenure and promotion, ADA accommodation, NCAA eligibility, application essay evaluation — carry a verbatim disclaimer:

> Advisory scaffolding — not legal advice. Review by general counsel and [Title IX coordinator / IRB chair / financial aid director / conduct administrator / athletics compliance officer / accreditation liaison] required.

These skills **structure information for the decision-maker; they do not make determinations**. IRB skills never declare exempt/expedited/full-board. Title IV skills never make eligibility decisions. Title IX skills never reach responsibility findings. NCAA skills never make eligibility determinations. The decision authority remains with the institutional official designated under federal regulation, policy, or accreditor standard.
