Summary: 


On February 8, 2006, the U.S. Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against the Board of Trustees for Southern Illinois University under Title VII in the Southern District of Illinois. The Department of Justice asked the court for injunctive relief, alleging that the defendant discriminated against non-specified minorities on the basis of race and white males on the basis of race and gender. The day after, the parties entered into a consent decree with injunctive reliefs and the case was dismissed on December 2, 2008.
