Inside the Supreme Court case that could decide Title IX employee protections
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments on Nov. 30 in Crowther v. Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia, which asks whether employees of federally funded educational institutions can sue their employers for sex discrimination under Title IX. The 11th Circuit dismissed both plaintiffs' Title IX claims, while eight other circuits have allowed such employee suits. Employers at colleges and universities should watch the ruling, since experts expect it to shape future employee litigation.
