Questions presented
-
Should this Court resolve the conflict among the Circuits as to the proper test for sex discrimination under 20 U.S.C. § 1681 in Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972 by adopting the test stated in Doe v. Purdue, 928 F.3d 652, 667 (7th Cir. 2019), as the governing rule?
-
Is it an important federal question whether the U.S. Supreme Court should adopt the superior method of analysis for determining sex discrimination under 20 U.S.C. § 1681 in Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972, contained in the test stated in Doe v. Purdue, 928 F.3d 652, 667 (7th Cir. 2019), applied in accordance with governing motion to dismiss a summary judgment procedural rules, and dispense with use or purported use of the “selective enforcement” and “erroneous outcome” Second Circuit tests associated with Yusuf v. Vassar College, 35 F.3d 709 (2d Cir. 1994)?
-
Is it an important federal question whether procedural deficiencies in a college or university disciplinary proceedings combined with additional evidence of sex bias permit a sufficient inference of gender bias to avoid summary judgment when a student who alleges that a college or universityimposed discipline in violation of Title IX?
