New draft Title IX regulations, victories against Cornell, University of Denver and University of Michigan, new laws bolster and erode due process, and more.
New draft Title IX regulations, victories against Cornell, University of Denver and University of Michigan, new laws bolster and erode due process, and more.
Every month, we distribute a “Title IX Recap,” providing a highlight of the previous month’s litigation, advocacy, and other Title IX-related matters. As always, more information on any lawsuits by accused students or Title IX OCR resolutions will be found in our Accused Students Database and OCR Resolutions Database respectively.
As of this posting, the below numbers are our current tallies of lawsuits and resolved investigations as tracked in our Title IX Lawsuits and OCR Investigations databases.
“These regulations eliminate the right to live hearings, eliminate the right to cross-examination, weaken protections for free speech, and authorize schools to deny students the right to have the active assistance of a lawyer. That’s a recipe for constitutional violations that courts are unlikely to ignore.”
“The resurrection of this core hostility to civil liberties under a still more progressive administration remains one of the great ironies of the Title IX debate.”
“Harvard University must face suit by former Goldman Sachs analyst and television writer Damilare Sonoiki, who alleged the university wrongfully withheld his degree because of sexual misconduct accusations by three female students, the First Circuit said.”
“Colorado court follows federal appeals judges in reinstating lawsuit against private university for sex misconduct proceedings. Ominous sign for Biden’s pending Title IX rules.”
Judge Jose Cabranes likened the “growing ‘law’ of university disciplinary procedures, often promulgated in response to the regulatory diktats of government,” to “the infamous English Star Chamber.”
“The U.S. Department of Education continues to allow the University of Cincinnati to discriminate against white and Asian males in its newly worded ‘Undergraduates Pursuing Research and Science Program,’ according to a longtime economics scholar.”
“Use of biologically correct pronouns not only does not constitute sexual harassment under Title IX or the District’s own policy, it is also speech protected by the First Amendment.”
“The University of Michigan’s high-profile court losses on due process in Title IX sexual misconduct proceedings gave ammunition to the Trump administration when it proposed and enacted regulations to level the playing field between accuser and accused.”
NPR/Ipsos poll shows nearly 2/3 of Americans are opposed to allowing men and boys to compete on women’s and girls teams.
