Montana State University is under investigation by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights for discrimination for failing to respond appropriately after the Queer Straight Alliance received threats, including a death threat, last semester. A letter from the Office for Civil Rights said the federal agency received more than 20 complaints alleging the Bozeman flagship failed in its response to reports of harassment based on sex, race, color, and national origin. The Queer Straight Alliance provides support to LGBTQ+ students at MSU, the state’s largest public university. The organization received a death threat in February for a queer-friendly dance party it promoted in town and later a harassing message. In an email to the Daily Montanan, MSU said law enforcement found the threats were not credible threats of violence, and the off-campus event took place without incident. However, the Office for Civil Rights’ letter to MSU President Waded Cruzado said it would investigate allegations of the university discriminating against students and faculty by failing to respond appropriately to reports of harassment. Title IX of the 1972 federal Education Amendments and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act prohibit discrimination at universities receiving federal money.
