“Have we got a college?
Have we got a football team?
Well, we can’t afford both.
Tomorrow we start tearing down the college!”

Groucho Marx

Well at least we know who is running our Colleges and Universities now. Come to think of it, Groucho Marx would probably be an improvement over the fools in charge now.

Academia continues its War On Women.
The Political Party in charge of NY state enables this.

Now if it had been a white non-athlete, and he had merely talked to her with her not being attracted to him, then he would have been expelled immediately.

Maybe I missed it, but I didn’t notice any mention of the police having been called.

If that had been my daughter there would be a half-dozen football players with broken kneecaps, if they lived.

One good thing about football players is they are public and out in the open. Bad thing for them is a major accident can bring them down to just normal folks that walk funny.

I too have never understood why these felonies are adjudicated by the schools and not the police. This is a horrible crime, at least as it’s alleged to have happened, and how on earth does it go completely unpunished?

No wonder the military has the same if not worse problems.

According to the article, the DA investigated and didn't press charges. Probably the players claimed it was consensual.

My kid had a problem at a university here in Virginia. A stalker who kept following and touching. The city police, the campus police, the school's teachers and the dean, all did nothing. I went to a judge and got a restraining order. Solved the problem but the university KICKED MY KID OFF OF CAMPUS! Almost all the law firms in the city work for the university and wouldn't talk to me and even the Commonwealth Attorney wished me luck and hung up the phone! In the end, we switched schools with songs in our heart. I know they think they won but, like the traitors in our government, a time will come when the wheat shall be separated from the chaff....

The Bryant case in CO gave the green light to that kind of corruption, and oddly, rapes by college athletes very often include the worse and more damaging crime of sodomy.

This is why young women should be raised to defend themselves. Defense is both passive and active. For example, do not ever go to a fraternity party, because they are inherently unsafe, even if a group of women go together.

Do not drink a drink unless you have had control over it from the start. If you do not have it in your hand and under observation at any time, get a new drink.

If you feel threatened with sexual assault, it is imperative that you discreetly draw a knife and slash your attacker. Nothing quite says “No!” like a foot long gash that is bleeding profusely.

There was probably nothing admissible left for the DA by the time the campus “police” finished their “investigation”.
