Title IX public comments - "Today Title IX experts actually admit that claims of campus sexual misconduct are baseless in 30 to 50 percent of cases."

For those not fully aware--former U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos changed Title IX guidance to better guarantee due process protection for those accused of sexual assault on campuses across the U.S. (read: men).

I'm only one third of the way through these comments but this is what a lot of the comments in favor of rescinding the recent changes to Title IX guidance boil down to:

Due process shouldn't be given to the accused because making the victim of sexual assault talk about sexual assault is emotionally difficult for them, and could prevent other victims of sexual assault from speaking out.

One of the most shocking bits of testimony that I've read so far, though, came from Theresa Manning of the National Association of Scholars, stating that "experts actually admit that claims of campus sexual misconduct are baseless in 30 to 50 percent of cases."

I'm certainly interested in understanding precisely where that statistic came from. If anyone is able to track it down, certainly comment.

So it could be that fully HALF of all sexual assault claims on college campuses are false?

So much for "false accusations are rare" . . .

It may be higher than that. I have personally been a part of a university committee that found evidence that a female student lied to get a male student expelled. University did nothing to the female student and still punished the male student with extra Title IX "training". At least he didn't get expelled. Probably would have if it weren't for video cameras proving his innocence.

Cops readily admit that the majority of rape/sexual assault claims are fabricated. Women lie all the time about this to cover their indiscretions or infidelities.

When about half of accusations are misguided or litteraly lies, it's proves that we have a serious problem with the "believe women" and "metoo" movements.

Not surprised at all. If anything I figured this number would be higher. Given the incentives involved.

A misogynistic subreddit for men... should I have expected otherwise

They wasted money on this study?
