Министерство образования США начало расследование в отношении Смит-колледжа из-за приема студентов мужского пола
Министерство образования США объявило о начале расследования деятельности Смит-колледжа (Массачусетс). Управление по гражданским правам (OCR) проверяет, нарушает ли учебное заведение закон Title IX, разрешая студентам биологического мужского пола доступ к пространствам, предназначенным только для женщин, включая общежития, раздевалки и туалеты.Согласно заявлению ведомства, закон Title IX запрещает дискриминацию по признаку пола в программах, получающих федеральное финансирование. Хотя закон допускает существование учебных заведений только для одного пола, это исключение должно основываться на биологическом поле, а не на геннодерной идентичности. По мнению министерства, колледж, принимающий студентов мужского пола, перестает соответствовать статусу учебного заведения для одного пола.Сам Смит-колледж позиционирует себя как женское учебное заведение, однако принимает всех абитуриентов, которые идентифицируют себя как женщины, включая трансгендерных и небинарных персон. В официальном комментарии представители колледжа подтвердили получение уведомления о расследовании, подчеркнув приверженность институциональным ценностям и соблюдению законов о гражданских правах, однако отказались комментировать детали текущего разбирательства.Помощник секретаря по гражданским правам Кимберли Ричи заявила, что допуск биологических мужчин в пространства, предназначенные для женщин, вызывает серьезные опасения относительно конфиденциальности и справедливости, а администрация Трампа намерена добиваться соблюдения федерального законодательства.
Trump admin investigates all-women's college for admitting male students
The U.S. Department of Education announced that its Office for Civil Rights has launched a probe into Smith College for admitting men into the women's educational institution, allowing them into women-only areas such as restrooms."Today, the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) opened an investigation into Smith College, one of the nation’s largest all-women's colleges, for admitting biological men and granting them access to women-only spaces, including dormitories, bathrooms, locker rooms, and athletic teams," the department said in a statement Monday. "OCR will determine whether the college violated Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX) by allowing biological males into women’s intimate spaces.""Title IX prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance," the department explained. "Title IX contains a single-sex exception that allows colleges to enroll all-male or all-female student bodies — but the exception applies on the basis of biological sex difference, not subjective gender identity. An all-girls college that enrolls male students professing a female identity would cease to qualify as single sex under Title IX."COLLEGE OFFERING 'WHITE SUPREMACY IN THE AGE OF TRUMP' COURSE AS PRESIDENT-ELECT RETURNS TO WHITE HOUSEWhile the institution describes itself as a "women's college," the school "considers for admission any applicants who self-identify as women," explaining that, "cis, trans, and nonbinary women are eligible to apply to Smith.""Smith College has received notice that the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) opened a Title IX investigation into the College," the school said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital. "The College is fully committed to its institutional values, including compliance with civil rights laws. The College does not comment on pending government investigations."CALIFORNIA JUNIOR COLLEGE ATHLETES SPEAK OUT ON TRANS CONTROVERSY THAT'S NOW IN THE TRUMP ADMIN'S CROSSHAIRSSmith College is located in the state of Massachusetts."An all-women’s college loses all meaning if it is admitting biological males," Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights Kimberly Richey said in a statement.FEDS OPEN PROBE INTO NEW YORK CITY'S ANTI-ISRAEL TEACHERS"Allowing biological males into spaces designed for women raises serious concerns about privacy, fairness, and compliance under federal law. The Trump Administration will continue to uphold the law and fight to restore common sense," Richey noted.
