<p>@circuitrider - Thanks very much for finding that article. Well, then, that explains the problem. Schools are acting in order to stay in some sort of compliance with Title IX. Does anyone else see the absolute problem here? </p>
<p>Since the schools are not courts and are not equipped in any way to handle these cases, what naturally happens in a he said-she said situation is going to be something that cannot be fair handling to either party. If there is not enough even for the police to take action, how in the world can humans, not even trained in the judicial system, going to meter out a decision that makes sense? Impossible - unless one is running a kangaroo court scenario. </p>
<p>Title IX, in that respect, makes colleges act in a venue where they should not even be operating, just to keep Title IX money and the JD off their backs. This is not based on legality or even criminality; it is downright political. And worse, it gives the accuser some hope that colleges will do something the court system might refuse to do. That is in search of a witch hunt, not justice. That is neither fair to the accuser or the accused - it is abusive to both.</p>
