Is this what you consider common knowledge regarding Title IX or simply your interpretation of how this pertains to FGCU?

Oh and we have threads about Title IX.

What KSigAdvisor needs to understand is that this isn't about him. The issue of GLO recognition by colleges and universities is a longstanding one, as indicated by the posts on previous pages (before people got tired). Students and alum need to understand the how tos, whys, and hows before they get angry with institutions and feel as though insitutions are imposing upon their "legal rights." There are institutions that are violating rules and regulations (and/or "legal rights"), but that is not to be assumed just because you are told NO or whatever.
