Law professor: Title IX not relevant in Dist. 211 transgender case

http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20151026/news/151029160/

The Daily Herald/By Eric Peterson 10/26/2015

"The federal Title IX law that prohibits sex discrimination in schools is at the heart of the dispute between Palatine-Schaumburg High School District 211 and the American Civil Liberties Union regarding transgender students' access to locker rooms.

But a Loyola University law professor says that in two recent federal cases, judges found Title IX irrelevant to cases of transgender students' use of the bathrooms and locker rooms of the gender with which they identify."
