Federal investigators are looking into a conservative activist’s claim that several scholarship programs at The University of Alabama at Huntsville discriminate against men.

Justin Gaffney Samuels, a New York-based blogger and filmmaker who graduated from Cornell University, according to his website, has filed multiple complaints against women’s colleges and other universities in recent months, claiming they violated federal anti-discrimination laws and would be tested by the U.S. Supreme Court’s affirmative action ban.

In a letter to AL.com, Samuels said he didn’t want to “stand by and watch potential discrimination take root” in Alabama universities that he said were offering scholarships exclusively to women, LGBTQ, Latino and Black students.

Samuels filed a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights in April, alleging that University of Alabama at Huntsville had violated Title IX by exclusively offering scholarships to women.

In his complaint, he alleged that UAH denied opportunities to men by promoting the following scholarships:

• Heritage Junior Woman’s Club Scholarship
• University Women’s Club scholarships
• Huntsville Woman’s Club Memorial Scholarship
• ASIST (Adult Students in Scholastic Transitions) Scholarship from the Huntsville Chapter of Executive Women International
• American Association of University Women Fellowship

Samuels provided AL.com with a notice from the Office for Civil Rights stating the office would partially investigate the claims. AL.com verified the notice through the OCR’s federal database.

The office dismissed allegations against two of the scholarships – the University Women’s Club Scholarship and the Huntsville Woman’s Club Memorial Scholarship – stating that there was not enough information about the awards, or that Samuels could not provide examples of anyone who had been denied a scholarship because of their sex.

UAH did not respond to a request for comment.

“This investigation has far-reaching implications, not just for Alabama but for educational institutions nationwide,” Samuels wrote. “It will determine if these well-intentioned scholarships inadvertently perpetuate discrimination and if universities must adjust their policies accordingly.”

The Supreme Court’s decision doesn’t mention scholarships, but some states have already issued directives to immediately stop considering race-based financial aid, according to USA Today.

Recent reports found that the decision has emboldened anti–affirmative action groups, including the The Equal Protection Project and the American Enterprise Institute, to file numerous federal complaints targeting scholarships for women and minority students.

According to the Office for Civil Rights’ federal database, the office is currently investigating 265 complaints about single sex scholarships and campus programs – the majority of which were filed after 2020. The office has resolved about 40 scholarship-related complaints in the past decade.
