National Women's Law Center files Amicus Brief in Sexual Harassment Case

The National Women’s Law Center filed an amicus brief in the Eighth Circuit in a case involving the contours of a school’s responsibility under Title IX to respond to harassment that occurs off-campus between two of its students.  The trial court had decided that because the college student was sexually assaulted at a privately-owned apartment building the school had no responsibility to investigate and respond to the assault once the student survivor reported it.
