Campus conflict exposed at the core of SJSU's messy fight vs Trump admin over volleyball scandal

San Jose State University (SJSU) is embroiled in a legal and political conflict with the Trump administration over its handling of a 2024 volleyball scandal involving coaches Blaire Fleming and Brooke Slusser. The university faces internal divisions and public protests, including a pro-trans rights town hall where activists demanded administrators reject a federal resolution agreement. SJSU and the California State University system are suing to assert compliance with Title IX, which could set a national precedent for public universities.
