ORDER

THIS COURT has requested that the parties in this Title IX action brief the issue of whether or not the plaintiff is entitled to a jury trial. The parties have submitted their respective briefs.

*600In addition, defendant Nova University has filed a motion to dismiss the plaintiffs claim for monetary damages, and plaintiff has responded thereto in a timely fashion.

The plaintiff in this action has alleged that she was dismissed from the defendant’s psychology doctorate program due to her sex. Accordingly, this matter falls under Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, which is codified at Chapter 20 of the United States Code, sections 1681-1688.

This Court has previously followed the Supreme Court’s direction in Chauffers, etc. v. Terry, 494 U.S. 558, 110 S.Ct. 1339, 1349,108 L.Ed.2d 519 (1990), and ruled that when a Seventh Amendment right is involved, a litigant is entitled to a jury trial. Gangitano v. NN Investors Life Ins. Co., 733 F.Supp. 342, 343 (S.D.Fla. 1990) (Gonzalez, J.). Specifically, this Court held that because the plaintiffs’ statutory claim1 was essentially a breach of contract claim, the plaintiffs were entitled to a jury trial. In reaching this conclusion, this Court reasoned that “ ‘actions brought to enforce statutory rights ... analogous to common-law causes of action ... ’” triggered the litigants Seventh Amendment right to a jury trial. Id., quoting, Granfinanciera, S.A. v. Nordberg, 492 U.S. 33, 109 S.Ct. 2782, 2787-2788, 106 L.Ed.2d 26 (1989).

Further analysis of Title IX cases, however, has led this Court to conclude that this Title IX action is not a common law action.

Recently, the Circuit Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit has held that damages are not available in a Title IX action such as the case at bar. Franklin v. Gwinett County Public Schools, 911 F.2d 617, 622 (11th Cir. 1990).2 Further, the court stated that Title IX cases, by their nature, lend themselves to limited remedies which are equitable in nature. Id. at 621; Guardians Association v. Civil Service Commission, 463 U.S. 582, 596-599, 103 S.Ct. 3221, 3229-3231, 77 L.Ed.2d 866 (1983).3

The Supreme Court has long held that Title IX private rights of action are akin to Title VI actions. Cannon v. University of Chicago, 441 U.S. 677, 694-696, 99 S.Ct. 1946, 1956-1957, 60 L.Ed.2d 560 (1979); Franklin, 911 F.2d at 619. In fact the Court has reasoned that the two statutes are identical except that the protected classes in Title IX cases are gender classes, as opposed to racial classes in Title VI cases. Cannon, 441 U.S. at 694-696, 99 S.Ct. at 1956-1957; Franklin, 911 F.2d at 619.

This judicial circuit has also held that a Title VI cause of action is no more than a vehicle to stop or enjoin discrimination, and that damages are not available to Title VI litigants. Drayden v. Needville Indep. School Dist., 642 F.2d 129, 133 (5th Cir. Unit A April 1981).4 The Franklin court found that because the Supreme Court did not overrule Drayden, and because Congress did not explicitly provide for compensatory relief in Titles IX and VI, damages *601are unavailable under both acts. Franklin, 911 F.2d at 622.

For the foregoing reasons, this Court finds that the plaintiff is not entitled to a jury trial, and is likewise not entitled to monetary damages in this Title IX action. Accordingly, any request by any party for a jury trial will be denied, and the defendant’s motion to dismiss the plaintiffs claims for monetary damages will be and is hereby granted.

It is so Ordered.
