Good news for college men: You’re welcome again on campus.
On Friday, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos ripped up the Obama administration’s one-sided rules on how colleges and universities handle accusations of sexual assault and misconduct. The rules, imposed in 2011, were so stacked against the accused — usually young men — that dozens of innocent male students were branded as rapists, kicked out of school and robbed of future job opportunities.
Those with sufficient money and fortitude managed to get their names cleared in real courts of law — where rules of evidence, due process and reasonable standards of proof apply. Last month, a California judge threw out a rape case against a 20-year-old University of Southern California student after videotapes showed the sexual encounter with a female student was consensual.
But he still faces possible expulsion, because USC’s Obama-era policies tilt the scales against him — despite the vivid on-tape evidence of consent. That’s the difference between American justice, where the accused have rights, and Barack Obama’s campus sex courts, where only accusers are believed.
Advocates for the Obama rules defend them as “survivor centered.” Translation: They’re biased against the accused. And bias has no place in a court. The Obama rules have been criticized by the American Bar Association, the American College of Trial Lawyers and Harvard Law School faculty — hardly right-wingers.
DeVos promises new rules in the coming months. Vowing no tolerance for sexual assault, she said “schools must continue to confront those horrific crimes and behaviors head-on.” But, “the process also must be fair and impartial.”
Fair? Don’t hold your breath. Campuses are so dominated by anti-male ideology that it’s unlikely men there will be given a fair shake under any rules.

-—Campuses are so dominated by anti-male ideology that it’s unlikely men there will be given a fair shake under any rules.-—
And this anti-male sentiment carries right through to government when all the graduates land jobs in big media, government, or its agencies.
Any wonder why Hillary, Huma, Lois, Loretta never get indicted?
False accusers are just as much into racketeering as actual rapists and 99% of the time are aligned with rapist ideologies
I have been involved (not as an accused!) with these college administrative actions numerous times. They are completely unfair to the guy (inevitably, it is a guy). In our jurisdiction, the actual prosecutor would advise both the alleged victim and the alleged perpetrator to NOT cooperate with the school. If the perp actually did it, the criminal case could be compromised. If he didn’t do it, he could convict himself by statements made without counsel at the school tribunal.
Secretary DeVos should be praised for her actions on this.
So for my non-legal mind, that means if the alleged perp cooperated with the school, it would be much harder to get a conviction?
It’s not even a role of the federal government, let alone the White House.
There’s a great deal of sense in this article, but I doubt it will get much attention. The Sexual Revolution promised people lives is joy and freedom through the indulgence of genital appetite, with no limiting factor other than “consent.” Lots of women believed it. Now, when their sexual activity results in their feeling exploited, violated, or revolted, they don’t reason that the premises they were taught are completely wrong. Instead, they reason that they must not have “consented,” even if it seems like they did.

This article discussed the same points. The “feminists” aren’t totally wrong, because the misery is real. However, it’s not caused by lack of “consent.” It’s caused by sinning against nature and nature’s God.
Follow the entire thought.
Well said, Tax-chick.
Sexual promiscuity is against Natural Law, which is an academic way of saying it’s against our inbuilt nature. And our inbuilt natural gift of reason would tell us so, if we cared to employ our reason! Then we’d know that boundary-less sexual behavior impede human flourishing on the level of the individual, the family, and across generations.
Natural Law -— made by God, Nature’s Author -— being part of the structure of reality, can’t be canceled, no more than you could cancel the Law of Gravity.
Oh, irony, a huge loophole in there to protect an actual rapist and get another guy condemned....
This is some sick devilry.
Yes, the fake “hurt feeling” pseudoconsciousness of snowflakes is one manufactured to artifically destroy the inherent consciousness we are born with, ie this assertive behavior in sinning without inhibition with a veneer of centering oneself on one’s emotional personal needs in extreme selfish ways is found in the overfemininized false accusers.
I wasn’t entirely clear. Victims that cooperate could easily hurt the case. The questioners ask vague and leading questions, the answers to which could look contradictory later. The defense would destroy the credibility of the witness with the slightest change in story or even demeanor. Defense attorneys that are good at their job, can take even the prior testimony of the perp and make a silk purse.
No it is better all around, if both the defendant and the victim avoid these kangaroo courts. These proceedings should be limited to parking tickets and alcohol offenses in the dorms.
Oddly enough, colleges in my area are begging for white guys to attend; they’ve earned reputations where some Asians actually study while many preferred minorities “play school”, and it is ruining them in terms of serious academics and reputation.
This country is paying a steep price all over for marginalizing white men and the WASP culture that built this country; once an area becomes “ex-white” it quickly resembles the homelands of whatever Third Worlders are trafficked there to keep the schools open. When white men forego families, the demographic disaster is irreversible.
Then we’d know that boundary-less sexual behavior impede human flourishing on the level of the individual, the family, and across generations.

Also, the way campus women dress is a big part of the lack of boundaries, further corrupting weak and sexually out-of-control men. The Muslims can rightfully condemn us for this.
I gotta second that. My mother put a quick stop to that oh-so-many years ago.

Absolutely, lavaroise.
