   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  13-1206
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
[PUBLISHED] [Murphy, Author, with Loken and Colloton, Circuit Judges] Civil case - Title IX and torts. In action by female student athlete alleging the University was deliberately indifferent to her rape in violation of Title IX, on this record the district court did not err in granting the University's motion for summary judgment as plaintiff failed to demonstrate a genuine issue of material fact as to whether the school acted with deliberate indifference in respect to her rape and its aftermath; with respect to plaintiff's claim that the University was negligent in its treatment and supervision following a back injury she suffered in field hockey practice, she failed to present evidence to show the school breached a duty to conform to a standard of care; the court did not err in granting the school summary judgment on plaintiff's misrepresentation claims as she failed to show falsity, reliance or materiality with respect to claims regarding the quality of the school's athletic program and its support staff and facilities; the district court did not err in granting the University summary judgment on plaintiff's breach of contract claim based, in part, on her signed National Letter of Intent; alumni connections were not a reasonable basis for questioning a judge's impartiality and the district court did not err in denying plaintiff's motion to recuse; claims of due process violations with respect to discovery and motion practice denied.
