Alleging Sex Discrimination, Greek Organizations Insist Courts Must Hear Social Group Lawsuits
Plaintiffs challenging Harvard's sanctions on single-gender social groups have countered the university's motions to dismiss their lawsuits. The lawsuits, filed by Greek organizations and individual students, argue that the recent sanctions, which penalize members of single-gender clubs by barring them from leadership positions and endorsement for fellowships, unfairly target students based on their gender and the gender makeup of their clubs. Harvard defended the policy as equally applied to all students, asserting it aims to foster inclusivity.| Creator |
