Sept. 22 (UPI) -- Federal prosecutors and San Jose State University in Northern California have agreed to a $1.6 million settlement for more than a dozen female student-athletes who said they were sexually harassed by a former trainer.
A 14-page letter sent by the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division to California's state university system said that the school failed to address the reports for more than a decade and violated Title IX laws against sex-based discrimination.
