United States Seventh Circuit
CHERRY v. UNIV. OF WISCONSIN SYS. BD. OF REGENTS, 00-2435
The Eleventh Amendment does not cover a state university accused of violating the Equal Pay Act or Title IX, because the Equal Pay Act conforms to the Fourteenth Amendment and the state waived Eleventh Amendment immunity from private causes of action when it accepted Title IX funds.
