NextImg:BREAKING: Trump just got UPenn to REVERSE course after violations found regarding trans pretender Lia Thomas – The Right Scoop

The University of Pennsylvania, UPenn, was found by the Trump administration to have violated Title IX years ago when they allowed transgender pretender Lia Thomas to compete and win in female swimming.

Because of this, they have totally reversed course, will apologize to the swimmers involved and will vacate the ‘records’ made by Thomas and restore them to the women that deserve them.

Oh, and they will also “adopt definitions for male and female consistent with biological sex.”

Here’s more from Outkick:

The Department of Education announced that the University of Pennsylvania has agreed to resolve Title IX violations related to allowing transgender swimmer Lia Thomas to compete on the women’s team during the 2021-22 season.

As part of the resolution deal, UPenn will adopt definitions for male and female consistent with biological sex; restore stolen records and titles to female athletes; and, issue personal apologies to each impacted female swimmer.

One of those swimmers is Paula Scanlan, a teammate of Thomas who has previously expressed the emotional distress she suffered from being forced to change with a biological male in the women’s locker room for an entire season.

“I am deeply grateful to the Trump administration for standing firm in protecting women and girls and restoring our rightful accolades,” Scanlan told OutKick. “It is because of their strong leadership that my alma mater now knows it has no choice but to begin the process of reforming its policies to uphold women’s rights. Today marks a momentous step toward repairing the past mistreatment of female athletes and forging a future where sex discrimination no longer limits girls’ potential.”

In April, the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights ruled that the University of Pennsylvania violated Title IX by allowing Thomas to compete on the women’s team.

Acting Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights Craig Trainor said at the time that UPenn could face financial consequences if they don’t comply. While UPenn is a private school, it received about $1 billion in federal funds in 2024, according to WHYY.

Unlike the state of Maine, which continues to fight the federal government despite also being found in violation of Title IX, UPenn made the appropriate decision to stop allowing males to compete in women’s athletics.

“Today’s resolution agreement with UPenn is yet another example of the Trump effect in action. Thanks to the leadership of President Trump, UPenn has agreed both to apologize for its past Title IX violations and to ensure that women’s sports are protected at the University for future generations of female athletes,” U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon said in a statement.

“Today is a great victory for women and girls, not only at the University of Pennsylvania, but all across our nation. The Department commends UPenn for rectifying its past harms against women and girls, and we will continue to fight relentlessly to restore Title IX’s proper application and enforce it to the fullest extent of the law.”

I’m glad they finally made the right decision when their funding was threatened, but they’ll never be forgiven for foisting that dude with mental illness onto the country in such an outrageous way.

But just as importantly, what’s the point of having students pay tuition if universities like this are getting a billion dollars every year from the federal government? What the hell?! Sure, we want to encourage higher education, but I don’t think that’s worth a billion dollars per university!

Unreal.
