Seven women filed a federal class-action lawsuit against LSU and its leadership Monday, with the university's former president and athletic director, as well as its athletic fundraising group, among those named as defendants, according to a copy of the lawsuit obtained by ESPN.
According to the 118-page document, the women attended the Baton Rouge campus at some point from 2013 to '21, and "were victims of sex-based discrimination, including rape, sexual assault, sexual harassment, and/or stalking, perpetrated by male LSU students."
The women include three former LSU tennis players, two former student workers in the football recruiting office, a former student and a current student.
