KEITH, Circuit Judge.
Plaintiff, a history professor at Raymond Walters General and Technical College of the University of Cincinnati appeals from a judgment of the district court dismissing her sex discrimination complaint. The district court held that her claim under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq., was untimely, 1 and that her claim under Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, 20 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq., must fail because Title IX does not create a private right of action. 2 We reverse.
