9. Similar to what happened to Hillsdale College early 80's except they refused to cave.

Hillsdale was told by the Federal Government in 1978 that they were in violation of Title IX compliance by not providing the required documentation and reports on their student body. Hillsdale's response was since they did not directly receive any federal funding, they were not required to submit the documentation. The court ultimately agreed.

However, the Federal government then told them that they would therefore cancel any financial aid grants and prohibit federally backed student loans to any student who attended. In a related case about the same time, in 1984, the Supreme Court ruled in Grove City College vs. Bell that the government could require that compliance and was permitted to withhold any money to their students. Hillsdale then created its own loan and grant program funded from their endowments, and has not accepted not has been given any Federal $$$.
