College Volleyball Player Claims School Deceived Her Into Living With Transgender Roommate

A college volleyball player revealed Friday on Fox News that San Jose State University (SJSU) misled her into sharing an apartment with a man who identifies as transgender.

SJSU volleyball team co-captain Brooke Slusser said that the school facilitated her living with a transgender teammate without disclosing to her her roommate’s biological sex during an appearance on “The Ingraham Angle.” Slusser transferred to the university in her junior year and was advised to move into a housing situation with what she believed were all-female teammates.

“I transferred here my junior year and was recommended to move into an apartment with a group of girls, I assumed,” Slusser told Laura Ingraham. “And so I moved in and later on came to find out that one of them was a man with no knowledge and would not have made that decision if I had known beforehand that I would be living with a man.”

During the same interview, International Women’s Forum attorney May Mailman voiced concerns about recent policies from the Biden administration affecting female athletes.

“But where is Kamala Harris? The Biden-Harris administration issued a Title IX regulation that will send the full weight of the federal government to take your funding away if you misgender somebody, quote, unquote, misgender someone,” Mailman said. “And here we have women being injured. We have women receiving death threats. We have women having to shower with men. And does Kamala Harris have anything to say about it? No, she doesn’t. So this is a federal government issue.”

The Biden administration expanded Title IX protections in April, detailing new federal safeguards for LGBT students and sexual assault survivors and broadening the scope of what constitutes sexual harassment in educational settings. This rule has been blocked by courts in a number of states, including Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana and Idaho.

The controversy extends beyond the federal government to other significant figures in sports administration, as Mailman said that Charlie Baker, President of the NCAA, has been similarly called out for his silence.

“This is also a Charlie Baker issue. He is the president of the NCAA. He has received more than 7,000 individualized letters that the Independent Women’s Forum has facilitated, silence, nothing,” Mailman continued.

The revelation comes after Utah State University became the fourth institution to forfeit its upcoming women’s volleyball game against SJSU on Oct. 23 amid ongoing disputes over a player’s gender identity, NBC News reported. This decision follows similar actions by the University of Wyoming, Boise State University and Southern Utah University, all of which have dropped matches against the California team in the past three weeks.
