How colleges can avoid Title IX pitfalls

Courts are reminding some schools that in focusing on the rights of the victim, they cannot ignore basic tenets of fairness to the accused in their sexual assault process.

The victim?

And what are the "rights of the victim"? Aren't rights an issue only when you are accused?

Integrating these following five best practices will help schools ensure that their sexual assault policies and procedures satisfy OCR’s requirements and still protect the fundamental due process rights of all parties involved in the matter.

Provide adequate notice to accused students.

Allow the accused to challenge the complainant’s testimony.

Allow the accused to present evidence in their defense.

Separate the functions of investigator and adjudicator.

Maintain a procedural record of the proceedings.

I don't think any US college will willingly do any of the above.

By not believing every female false accusation of rape and letting criminal court s handle it.

But this will never happen so I hope they like losing money from lawsuits.
