Dartmouth says letting women use pseudonyms in a $70 million class-action lawsuit -- which accuses the school of failing to promptly address sexual misconduct allegations -- is 'confusing'
The Ivy League institution says the anonymity would hamper its ability to defend itself.A federal complaint, filed in November, accuses the educators of turning the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences into a"21st Century Animal House," where female students were subjected to sexual harassment, groping and even rape. The New Hampshire school maintains that it does not condone the misconduct alleged.
What is Title IX? 02:32Anonymity would"prejudice" the school's ability to defend itself, the school claims, and"unfairly increase the burden" of litigating the case for all parties involved, presenting"unworkable challenges." Six of the nine plaintiffs are named in the complaint and some of them have used their names in media interviews, Dartmouth said in its response.
