King '14 Pam Sanders Prevost White Horse Holding Corporation O n December 3, sororities, fraternities and students filed a pair of lawsuits challenging a Harvard sanctions policy that punishes students who join off-campus, single-sex social organizations. The lawsuits describe how Harvard used a campaign of threats and intimidation to scare students into abandoning their fundamental rights to free association and to live free of sex discrimination. In the federal suit, a broad coalition of students and women's and men's organizations impacted by Harvard's sanctions—two international sororities, two international fraternities, a Cambridge fraternity chapter, and three current Harvard students—assert that through the sanctions policy, Harvard has interfered with students' right to be free of sex discrimination, as guaranteed by Title IX and the U.S. Constitution. In the suit filed in Massachusetts court, three women's organizations— an international sorority, one of its chapters, and a sorority housing corporation—assert that Harvard has interfered with students' rights to free association and equal treatment based on sex, both of which are protected by the Massachusetts Constitution. Alleging violations of the Massachusetts Civil Rights Act, the suit seeks to bring a stop to Harvard's sanctions by calling for an injunction prohibiting the University from continuing to unlawfully punish students. "As a result of this policy, almost all of the once vibrant sororities and women's final clubs open to Harvard women have either closed or had to renounce their proud status as women's social organizations," said Renee Zainer, international president of Alpha Phi, a plaintiff organization in the state case. "Together, we are standing up to Harvard on behalf of all students, because they have the right to shape their own leadership and social paths. Harvard simply can't erase the spaces students value for support and opportunity." The plaintiffs and lawsuits have a breadth of support from nearly 100 single- sex organizations, including the 26 sororities of the National Panhellenic Conference (NPC), the 66 fraternities of the North American Interfraternity Conference (NIC), and the organizations in the Cambridge Coalition. When the lawsuits were filed, the groups collectively launched a grassroots campaign to bring awareness to the issue and the value of single-sex organizations. Thousands of people posted about their fraternity/sorority experiences and disdain for Harvard's trampling of student rights using the hashtag #standuptoharvard. More than 62,000 people have signed a petition to make their voices heard. Learn more and sign the petition at standuptoharvard.org.
