The Massachusetts Institute of Technology was hit with a civil rights complaint on Monday, with the complainant noting one of its programs only allows “women of color” to participate.
The complaint, filed by the Equal Protection Project with the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights, focused on the Creative Regal Women of Knowledge, a racial minority and women’s only program at MIT. However, the program also considers biological men who identify as women eligible, according to its website.
