IS THE Dept. of Justice Creating a Campus Title IX Sex Offender Registry?

 The Department of Justice (DOJ) is seeking to collect information from colleges and universities regarding their policies and practices for sexual misconduct…one could think it is looking to create a campus sex offender registry.  “This project will collect information about current policies and practices utilized by colleges and universities regarding registered sex offenders who may be students or employees; individuals found responsible and sanctioned for campus sexual misconduct policy violations; and the review of criminal or disciplinary sexual misconduct history of prospective or current students,” the notice states. The DoJ is taking comments to its proposal to become embroiled in campus Title IX adjudications through August 31st. Comments can be sent to:

This is a bad idea now, and offers enormous, and entirely unjustifiable, potential for abuse in the future. The time to fix problems is before they happen, even if the government swears it would never, but never, do anything bad with the information it gathers.
