Good. I hope it goes all the way to the top.

I just want to get this straight, you expelled a student for rape on evidence that, (1) the alleged victim reported a "rape" over a year after the alleged incident, (2) never went to the police, (3) the university never reported it to the police, (4) that happened in the accused student's room, (5) condom was used, and (6) the woman continued to communicate with the alleged rapist after the incident...that was enough for you to label someone a rapist and expell them from the school?

Really? What the fuck is wrong with you. Quite frankly, you should be a defendant as well. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Cordially,

Maggie

I'm pretty sure there's a Federal law or something that had Universities reduce the burden of proof to "more probable than not," basically every public university in the country, if a judicial board finds that there is a 50.00000001% chance that the man is guilty, he gets expelled.

Yeah. We need more of these stories in the MSM. Sucks that this one is nypost though.

Fuck, this makes me angry. My school board voted last year to change its rules for prosecuting the accused in rape cases. Now, "beyond reasonable doubt," foundation of Western law, has been thrown out and the defendant only has to "likely to have been guilty" to be found guilty.

Vassar's a whorehouse.
