The Office for Civil Rights suggests universities complete internal investigations of such complaints in 60 days or less. After more than 8 months MTSU has yet to release its response to the complaint.
MTSU is also preparing to ask the Tennessee Historical Commission for permission to change the name of a campus building honoring a controversial Confederate general.

The move followed the shooting deaths of nine people in South Carolina by a self-professed White Supremacist. The Hall is named for Confederate general and founding Ku Klux Klan member Nathan Bedford Forrest.
More than two months after the Tennessee Board of Regents gave MTSU permission to proceed, the university has yet to submit the name change request to the Tennessee Historical Commission.....
