College sued for Title IX investigation against student
Jackson [a former student] filed a lawsuit against Macalester College and the U.S. Department of Education. Jackson also sued for alleged violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Rehabilitation Act…five days after the lawsuit was first filed, Jackson filed a motion for a restraining order against Macalester. The lawsuit went on to argue that Title IX actions by private colleges, are effectively actions conducted by the federal government because the Department has heavily influenced those policies. Therefore, private colleges are required to provide due process protections to their students.
