Yet Another College Loses a Due Process Case

It’s not uncommon for universities to limit the role of attorneys or advocates in internal disciplinary proceedings. I’ve worked on a number of cases where clients were denied help in front of campus tribunals, including one memorable case where a student’s own mother wasn’t even allowed in the room for moral support. It’s one thing to do this for alleged violations of, say, campus academic policies. It’s another thing entirely when a university is charging a student with committing a serious crime. In either case, it’s improper to so drastically limit the student’s defense, but in the case of claims of rape or sexual assault, it’s egregious.

Wait I don't get it, maybe it's because I live in Switzerland and know barely anything about law, but is this literally saying that the universities can stop you from getting someone to defend your rights ?

I must be getting this wrong no ?

How can this be monetized?

Having a judge embarrass a university and force them overturn there own decision and readmit a student is one thing.

But it isn't enough.

The ONLY thing these schools will listen to is if there wallets are hit hard.

What needs to happen is a lawyer and client need to be made seriously, filthy rich by suing the school. Then others need to follow.

People do not understand lawsuits. This is what they are for.

It is one thing to win. What I would like to hear about is how much he was awarded. It can't be a slap on the wrist.
