The American Lawyer

Brown University's choice of a woman to be its next president was
widely hailed in the world of academe. Largely unnoticed, though,
is the school's almost unrelenting war against Title IX, which bans
gender-based discrimination in schools. For eight years, Brown has
been battling a class action charging that its 1991 decision to cut
funding for women's gymnastics and volleyball violated the law.
