Question: Diane L. Matthews served in the U.S. Army for four years as a field communication equipment mechanic. She received numerous awards and high performance ratings and ultimately was promoted to sergeant. After she was honorably discharged, she enrolled in the University of Maine and joined the Reserve Officers Training Corps program on campus. Her ROTC instructor learned that she had attended a student senate meeting, which had been called to discuss the budget for the WildeStein Club. Upon inquiring as to the nature of the club, he was told by Matthews that it was the campus homosexual organization. On further inquiry, she told the officer she was a lesbian. Although her commander did not attempt to interfere with Matthews's continued membership in the club, he reported Matthews's disclosure to his supervisor. An investigation was conducted and she was disenrolled from the ROTC program. Was Matthews a victim of gender discrimination? Explain your answer. See Matthews v. Marsh [755 F.2d 182, 37 F.E.P. Cases 126 (1st Cir. 1985)].
