The U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights (OCR) found the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) violated Title IX by allowing males to compete in women's sports and use women-only facilities. OCR issued a resolution agreement requiring UPenn to restore women's athletic records, issue apologies, and publicly commit to Title IX compliance within 10 days, or face legal action and potential loss of federal funding. The decision follows an OCR investigation launched under Title IX, which prohibits sex discrimination in federally funded education programs.
