Woman reports alleged rape to university, not police, then is upset when the punishment isn't severe enough

This is going to be real interesting. If they try to punish the guy again or add more punitive actions against him, it's going to be "Ray Rice" all over again. Whatever Ms. Chittenden might think; if she wants anything else done to her alleged assailant, she's going to have to go to either the civil or criminal courts to get it done. It has only been a year, so the case is probably still under the statute of limitations.

With that being said; she apparently had no problem with her identity being revealed or her persona being attached to the case...so, why did she refuse to go to the police? According to the way that the university has responded, their "tribunal" has apparently found the alleged assailant. In light of such a "slam dunk," why didn't she go to the police if she wanted a more severe punishment. It doesn't get much more severe than being indicted, prosecuted, and incarcerated for rape.

These alleged rape victims who are choosing to use the now altered system of adjudication regarding rape/sexual assault in place on many universities, as opposed to going to the police are going to get a rude awakening when these pending Title IX lawsuits being filed by men come to fruition.
