U.S. Supreme Court rejects Michigan State's appeal in Title IX swimming case.
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined to consider how strictly to interpret the landmark Title IX civil rights law's protections for gender equality in college sports in a lawsuit challenging Michigan State University's elimination of its women's swimming and diving team.
The high court rejected the university's appeal of a lower-court ruling in favor of former members of the team who say MSU violated Title IX by not providing enough opportunities for women athletes to participate in sports.
Lori Bullock, a lawyer for the student athletes suing MSU, said she was "pleased but not surprised" the Supreme Court turned away MSU's appeal. The court's decision helps clear the way for a trial scheduled to begin next month.
