Harvard Title IX Coordinator Apologizes for Statement on Comaroff Lawsuit
Three graduate students filed a federal lawsuit against Harvard, alleging mishandling of sexual harassment complaints against Professor John L. Comaroff. The lawsuit claims Harvard obtained a student's private therapy records without consent and shared them with Comaroff. Initially, Harvard's Title IX coordinator defended the university's practices claimed that the "misrepresentations fostered distrust" in the university's counseling services yet later apologized following backlash against her initial statement.| Creator |
