The most draconian of rules anywhere are found in “higher-learning institutions.”
I guess that makes the President of Duke the biggest (potential) campus rapist of them all. Lock him up first. Why take a chance?
They just don’t learn do they?
Might as well enroll at Bob Jones Unviersity down the road in S.C.
This definitely needs to be challenged in the courts-—a mere perception wouldn’t or should I say SHOULDN’T stand up in a court of law.
Wow...the star of the Football team is in for some trouble.
>The policy claims that “perceived power differentials may create an unintentional atmosphere of coercion.”
Fear me; I am the captain of the chess team!
I also have awesome Sudoku skills!
These are the morons you pay to educate your kids.
You can do better.
This an attempt by a group of frustrated women and bitter lesbians to poison the atmosphere and prevent young people from normal attractions to the opposite sex. They want more anger and bitterness. They want more lies and false accusations. They want more ruined lives.
Well hell the good people at Duke certainly know about Rape
I’ll bet you a dollar that this ‘policy’ doesn’t apply to the Facutly or staff.
Rooted as hard as I could against them on Monday night.
I haven’t forgotten the Racist Disgrace that was the Duke Lacrosse incident.
Why don’t we just go ahead and institute Sharia Law now and cover the women with Burqas.....because we know that will totally eliminate all sexual harassment and tension..... ;)
this is feminist dogma. ALL sex with men is considered rape to them.
I read the policy and it doesn’t seem too bad.

The part about “real or perceived differentials in power may create an atmosphere of unintentional coercion” is not part of the definition of sexual misconduct, but rather part of the statement of principles.
Also, I would think this would refer to teacher/student, coach/athlete or other such relationships, where one party has power over the other intimidation might be used to get “consent”, not to the ridiculous NCAA basketball champion scenario, put forth in the article. No reaasonable person would conclude that a star athlete has the power to compel every woman on campus to have sex with him.
At any rate Duke is a private university and can make its own rules. Nobody has a “right” to attend Duke or any other private school. If Duke wanted to ban all sexual activity on campus, it would have every right to do so.
It would serve the Duke women right to be totally shut off by Duke guys, no more dates, totally shunned by guys in private and public settings, no women as lab partners or study groups with guys, not even a “hi” from any Duke guys whether in classes, in a student union, or out at a bar, dance, or party.
The guys should get theirs from non-Duke women and off campus.
Considering that these folks are the same ones who say that racism is NOT a two way street because blacks don’t have “power,” it probably means that only whites will be ensnared in this faux-rape trap.
Does this same rule apply to Duke professors who pimp out and rape their adopted sons?
