On the heels of filing a class action civil rights lawsuit against Walden University, Student Defense launched an investigation into the extent to which the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Federal Student Aid (“FSA”) has ensured that colleges and universities comply with key civil rights laws.
Student Defense submitted two requests under the Freedom of Information Act seeking documents regarding FSA’s enforcement of civil rights laws.
FOIA Requests
- Documents regarding institutions of higher education certifying compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and Final Program Reviews and Audit Determinations regarding such compliance.
- Documents regarding institutions of higher education certifying compliance with Title IX of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and Final Program Reviews and Audit Determinations regarding such compliance.
