Boise State football players expelled, suspended for alleged sexual assault

“I’m extremely upset, upset how those boys were treated,” Hendrix’s father, Jack, told the Statesman. “We feel their civil rights were violated, that they were interrogated, not given a chance to truly defend themselves. There are some promiscuous young ladies hiding behind Title IX, and there’s a vendetta against football by those investigators. There was no police investigation, or no repercussions for her actions.”

LAWSUIT: University lets rape accuser bring experienced lawyer, won’t let accused bring one

Lynn University let a sexual-assault accuser bring her lawyer and repeatedly “intervene” in a conduct hearing, while the accused student’s adviser – his mother – had to remain silent…The accused student, whose athletic and academic scholarships were revoked, said Lynn yanked him off the baseball team several weeks before his hearing.  All available evidence shows their sex was “fully consensual.”

Rape accuser ruined student’s life because he liked her best friend

A month after a federal judge blocked Brown University from immediately removing him from campus, a male student filed an amended complaint against the school that laid out an elaborate revenge plot by the female who accused him of rape…The suit concludes with a laundry list of ways that Brown has breached its contract with Doe. The university’s Title IX regime “encourages allegations of misconduct, offers accusers robust support and vigorously prosecutes complaints, while affording scant resources to the accused, little or no male perspective on adjudicatory panels, and no avenue for meaningful review of panel decisions.”

Judge blocks Brown from expelling student it called a rapist, says he’ll likely win lawsuit

Private universities can get away with a lot of things public universities can’t – but one sticking point is their contracts. A federal judge in Rhode Island has blocked Brown University’s attempt to suspend a student for more than two years and immediately remove him from campus, saying it applied ex post facto rules to his behavior.

Due Process and Sex Assaults

Citing an erosion of free speech and due process on college campuses, a group of 21 law professors on Monday released an open letter alleging that the U.S. Department of Education has unlawfully expanded how colleges must define and respond to allegations of sexual assault and harassment. The legal argument is an important one, because many colleges revised procedures based on the Education Department guidance — sometimes saying that they had no choice but to do so. insidehighered.com By Jake New                         Related: Profs see OCR’s actions for what they really are
