Title IX and babies: the new frontier?

Mary Ann Mason writes for The Chronicle of Higher Education, November 29, 2012

Did you know that Title IX specifically includes important protections for pregnant women and mothers? You probably didn’t, and neither do most pregnant graduate students and postdocs, or their teachers, principal investigators, department chairs, and deans. Most people think of Title IX, which prohibits gender discrimination in any education program receiving federal money, as focusing on athletics and sexual harassment.
