HUNDREDS of Lawyers Sign Letter in Favor of New Title IX Regulations
Nearly 300 professors, lawyers, and Title IX experts have signed an open letter in favor of the newly proposed Title IX regulations, which bolster due process, allow cross-examination, and require the presumption of innocence. Organized by the Maryland nonprofit SAVE Services, the letter was unveiled by attorney Margaret Valois on Capitol Hill last Thursday and was compiled to shatter the myth that strengthening due process in Title IX investigations will hurt women, especially survivors.
“The numerous signatures reveal that noted attorneys, legal scholars, other professionals, and legislators… recognize and uphold the important concept of due process and recognize that it is lacking in campus disciplinary proceedings.” Margaret Valois “Now is not the time for complacency.”
