KU Title IX settlement details reveal secrecy and $200,000 payout
The 2017 Kansas U. Title IX case involving a student known as John Doe 58 against KU and a theater professor ended with a prejudice dismissal after mediation. The out of court deal kept confidential though KU reserved rights under the Kansas Open Records Act. The suit cited inadequate investigation and retaliation, with later settlements in other Title IX matters bringing KU’s 2017 total to nearly $600,000 across multiple cases and small payments.
