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 Resolutions databases.

“A three-judge panel for the Court of Appeals agreed with Doe that DU’s representation of its process was specific enough to create an enforceable contract, and that the institution had a duty to use reasonable care when investigating and disciplining Doe.” Doe v. Denver University et al and its critical files can be found in our Title IX Lawsuits Database.

“Large-sample study involving almost a million students finds that sex differences are universal across dozens of countries and cultures — sex can be predicted by academic interests and abilities.” Noteworthy findings: “Universal patterns in academic sex differences are larger than hitherto thought” and “Academic sex differences are stronger in societies with more socioeconomic equality.”
California bill doubles down on unconstitutional sexual harassment definition
“Under this definition, a single unwanted request for a date, a joke, and even discussions of serious sexual topics in class another student might find unpleasant or disagreeable, can be deemed ‘sexual harassment.’”
APPEALED – injunctive relief denied in Doe v. University of Southern Indiana
Chief Judge Pratt has not historically been friendly to accused-students-turned-plaintiffs. Her recent decision continues that overall trend. Doe v. University of Southern Indiana and its critical files can be found in our Title IX Lawsuits Database.
