To conduct this analysis, I first discussed the context of the regulatory change and described the impacted student population, followed by a review of the history of Title IX’s religious exemption provision. I then conducted two separate “Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threat” (SWOT) analyses of the provision; one in its current form and another following its proposed chang- es, wherein I identified and discussed the internal strengths and weaknesses for religious institutions invoking this right, as well as the external opportunities and threats of the provision on the impacted LGBTQ+ student population
