Court Rules Title IX Sex Discrimination Case Against SDSU Can Move Forward
U.S. District Court Judge Todd W. Robinson held last month that the female student-athletes suing San Diego State University (SDSU) for violating Title IX can pursue all three of their claims – for equal athletic financial aid, equal treatment, and retaliation.
The decision is the first in the nation to hold that female student-athletes deprived of equal athletic financial aid can sue their schools for damages, according to the firm representing the plaintiffs, Bailey & Glasser, LLP.
