The investigations will determine if LGBTQ+ content, which the department describes as 'sexual orientation and gender ideology (SOGI) content', is included in any classes for grades pre-K-12 and if the schools have notified parents of their right to opt their children out. Further to this, the DOJ investigation will assess whether the three school districts restrict access to single-sex spaces based on 'biological sex'.

One of the best-kept secrets about DEI is that it helps men-that includes white men-get into college. If you do not work in admissions, you are likely unaware of this fact, and that's by design; one admissions officer even told The Wall Street Journal it's " higher education's dirty little secret." But it's been true for decades. Women's college enrollment surpassed men's all the way back in 1979, and the gender gap has only widened in the interim.

The latest legal maneuver in a months-long dispute invoking competing definitions of Title IX, the federal civil rights law prohibiting sex-based discrimination, saw the Department of Justice file suit against Virginia's Loudoun County School Board, accusing the school district of discriminating against two Christian students who were suspended after objecting to a transgender student using a boys' locker room. "Loudoun County's decision to advance and promote gender ideology tramples on the rights of religious students who cannot embrace ideas that deny biological reality," Assistant

According to the lawsuit, Camille Rich and her ex-husband, Stephen M. Rich, also a professor at USC Law, and now a vice dean of the law school, divorced in 2019. During the divorce process, Camille filed a Title IX complaint alleging Stephen was carrying on an affair with a student. In the lawsuit, Camille says years of dealing with a hostile work environment and the implosion of her marriage left her with PTSD, trauma she says worsened when she learned Stephen's relationship with the student was ongoing.

Seven members of the women's swimming and diving team and two women's tennis players allege in a sex discrimination class action lawsuit filed in August that by dropping the programs, the Irvine school is violating Title IX. Judge Fred W. Slaughter agreed, ordering that the injunction remain in place for the duration of the lawsuit. Concordia must immediately reinstate the women's teams and provide them "with funding, staffing, and all other benefits commensurate with their status as varsity intercollegiate teams," Slaughter wrote in a 19-page ruling.

A chaotic school board meeting in Maine on Wednesday night confirms a trend among anti-trans MAGA activists desperate for attention in Donald Trump's crusade against trans identity: stripping in public. The Augusta School Board devolved into partially-nude anarchy last week when local MAGA activist Nick Blanchard, who led the stunt, delivered an angry speech from the podium as two women stripped down to their underwear next to him and yelled at board members and the audience.

These radical gender policies are not just some abstract fight over politics they are hurting real children in Fairfax County schools every day. We are working with the U.S. Department of Education to reverse these policies and protect girls in our schools but every Virginia parent needs to understand this: @winwithwinsome will fight with you, and @SpanbergerforVA will fight against you," Youngkin wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

Miscarriage leave policies are a blind spot on many college campuses, one that urgently needs to be addressed.

We've made it very clear: Only women in women's sports under Title IX, Bondi says in the video. An example in California? A boy who was in track and field. He would have lost every race, yet in women's sports, he won over three dozen medals. Those medals should be returned to the women.
