Sannes preserves claims for hostile work environment and Title IX gender discrimination against St. Lawrence University, who was sued by a sociology professor who claims she was drugged and raped by a fellow professor at his off-campus home. The court finds the complaint successfully imputes liability for the sexual assault onto the university under Title XI on the basis of deliberate indifference before and after the assault, and further sufficiently alleges that the alleged perpetrator’s actions after the sexual assault were threatening and constituted a hostile work environment. Additionally, the court trims a countercomplaint filed by the alleged perpetrator and preserves a single claim for defamation regarding Facebook posts she made alleging she was a victim of rape.
