Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, no employer can discriminate against an employee based upon race, color, religion, sex or national origin. When Shaun is demoted by Montgomery ’s it was because the customer (Phil) made a false complaint about her supposedly saying a racial slur towards Phil. Thus under federal law Shaun was not discriminated against because the law only applies to undesirable employer actions against employees based upon Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which is race, color, sexual orientation, national origin and so on. Shaun being demoted was not based on those examples; it was based on her alleged behavior.…
This decision held that Title IX does not only protect against sex discrimination in the educational system but also protects those who have been retaliated against for reporting Title IX issues in the school systems. This was also extended to cover those who are third party reporters of Title IX discrimination. Jacksons’ suit for retaliation was constituted intentional discrimination on basis of sex, which therefore was a violation under Title IX. Previous to Jacksons case the courts decided in Cannon v. University of Chicago, 441 U.S. 677, that that right included actions for monetary damages by private persons. Franklin v. Gwinnett County Public Schools, 503 U.S. 60, and encompasses intentional sex discrimination in the form of a recipient’s deliberate indifference to sexual harassment of a student by a teacher, Gebser v Lago Vista Independent School District or by another students, Davis V Monroe County Board of Education.…

Title VII applies to employers with 15 or more employees, including state and local governments, employment agencies, labor organizations, and the federal government. Title VII also prohibits employment decisions based on stereotypes and presumptions about traits, abilities, or the performance of the individuals of a certain racial group. In June of the 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Executive Order 8802, in which prohibited any type of discrimination based on color, race,…
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 states that, “It shall be an unlawful employment practice for an employer … to discriminate against any individual with respect to his compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, because of such individual’s race, color, sex, or national origin.” Its goal was to create equality of employment by removing obstacles facing certain classes, such as women. If a law firm had a dress code requiring women in receptionist and secretarial positions to wear high heels, the policy might be challenged under this statute. Courts have taken diverse approaches to applying Title VII and balancing employer and employee interests. Evidence of both adverse health effects and the cultural symbolism…
In 2005, “the rules of title IX had a broad view and needed to clarify their explanation of some of the main rules” (Kennedy 81). The rules originally made in this law had many different viewpoints and they spent a lot of time trying to clarify each rule in the supreme…

This Title IX job is to protect college students and university students from any sexual act such as rape to be going around in campuses. According to Sexual Assault on College Campuses: Seeking the Appropriate Balance Between due Process and Victim Protection by Matthew R. Triplett, the Duke Law Journal the Title IX states, “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.” Other than the fact that it protects students from being sexually offended there are also some basic rules of it that most people get confused with. Most students would believe that the law of Title IX only protects the females around campuses, but this law protects all the students from the discrimination against sexual based around the college. Rape is also another term other researchers used, which means unlawful sexual intercourse or any sexual penetration.…
Title IX declares that colleges must show proportionality. Proportionality means that if half of the students attending the college are female then athletics must be half too. Some colleges that have more male athletes can either cut their program or add a female team. Many colleges have had to cut their athletic programs for both women and men because they just can't afford both. It is hard for colleges to support certain sports that have mostly men and not women.…
The three-part test associated with Title IX needs to be more developed and rationalized for the law to be properly met. Providing equal participation opportunities for male and female students that also represents the university population, expanding on a broken program, and attempting to show that they have properly accommodated the interest of the underrepresented members in a program is essentially unrealistic and holds more problems than need be. To…
The purpose of Title IX was to insure that, ”no person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance” (Barra, 2015, p.1). Although the law includes all aspects of college, the public mainly associates Title IX with athletics. Even though Title IX is a federal law, some colleges do not enforce its rules and regulations. The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) recently “loosened restrictions on the forms of compensation or aid that can be extended to athletes or, in some cases, even their families” (Oguntoyinbo, 2015, p.23). Title IX should be consistently enforced in every college.…
