The $125,000 settlement was then unanimously approved Monday by the State Appeal Board.
The settlement forever releases public officials from liability related to the claims of Black s lawsuit.
Black declined to comment at this time.
ISU spokesperson Angie Hunt said, This settlement allows both the university and Ms. Black to move forward in a more positive way, eliminating the cost associated with further litigation.
Hunt added The university takes its obligations under Title IX very seriously. We are continually striving to eliminate instances of sexual violence on campus, to encourage reporting of sexual misconduct, to create and maintain a fair process for both complainants and respondents, and to provide support to all students. We sincerely hope that Ms. Black can heal and find success and well-being in her future endeavors.
