‘Accused is guilty’: Campus rape tribunals punish without proof

How the Pressures of Title IX Compliance Have Chilled My College Campus
Title IX has created a chilling effect at UD as students no longer feel that they can be open in discussions with their class and their professors…Universities should be encouraging victims to discuss their trauma in a healthy and progressive manner, but instead they are teaching students how to be afraid and silent.

Kirsten Gillibrand’s assault on reality
Gillibrand said the reason schools could use a low standard of proof…and deny due process was “Because you’re not throwing someone in jail.” So on the one hand she’s saying that this is a serious issue and that we need to protect victims, and on the other hand she is saying “don’t worry, accused students, the punishment isn’t that bad.”

“With pressure from the government, institutions walk a fine line of doing something at the mere sign of an allegation and sometimes going over and beyond what is necessary to be fair to the accused,” United Educators, paid out $36 million between 2006 and 2010 for 262 sexual assault cases on behalf of universities. Seventy-two percent of the payouts went to those who sued universities after being accused of sexual assault.

2011 Update to Title IX: The Pendulum Has Swung Too Far
Higher education institutions are not designed, financed or suited to simultaneously play prosecutor, judge and jury. We have constitutionally mandated requirements for due process in our criminal justice system, and if schools are to be tasked by the DOE with investigating and adjudicating quasi-criminal accusations, appropriate safeguards must be guaranteed to the accused.
