Trump administration says San Jose State broke the law by allowing a transgender volleyball player
The Trump administration has concluded that San Jose State University discriminated against women by letting a transgender athlete play on the women’s volleyball team. The U.S. Education Department announced its findings Wednesday and offered San Jose State a deal that would resolve the case. The university would have to accept the administration’s definition of “male” and “female,” restore titles and records that Trump officials say were “misappropriated by male athletes,” and issue an apology to female athletes. University officials did not immediately comment. The department has taken action against a series of states, schools and colleges that allow transgender athletes, something President Donald Trump has promised to end.
