Ruling revives student's bias lawsuit

USA Today reports:

The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 Wednesday that students who are sexually harassed may sue under a federal statute covering schools and a broader civil rights law.

The decision, which clears up a conflict among lower courts, revives a lawsuit brought by the parents of a Massachusetts kindergartener who said a third-grade boy repeatedly harassed her on the school bus.

Marcia Greenberger, co-president of National Women's Law Center, praised the ruling, saying, "Sex discrimination … is still all too common in (schools). That is why it is crucial that a full range of remedies remain available."
