Let the depositions and risk of perjury begin!
The Student Athletes Human Rights Project filed a complaint Friday with the federal Office for Civil Rights alleging the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill discriminated against male athletes, especially black, male athletes, in assigning more of them to so-called ‘paper classes.’ In directing athletes to those classes, the complaint says, the university deprived them of the same quality education available to other student-athletes.
“The data suggests black student-athletes are disproportionately enrolled in paper courses when compared to white student-athletes,” the group wrote in its complaint to the United States Department of Education.
