Utah Valley University paid $45,000 to settle a lawsuit in which the former director of its Title IX office claimed she had been fired after looking into allegations of sexual harassment by senior administrators, among other reasons, The Salt Lake Tribune reported.
The university announced the settlement with Melissa Frost on Monday but declined to disclose any details about the terms. But a settlement document released in response to an open-records request, the newspaper reported, revealed the payment and the fact that neither side admitted fault.
Utah Valley denied Frost's assertions, which also included that campus police paid less attention to sexual assault allegations brought by gay men, in court.
