Campus title IX regs were changed today. Burden of proof shifted back to the accuser.

The new rules are similar to what the Department of Education proposed in November 2018. Most notably, the government has abolished the single-investigator model, which previously permitted a sole university official to investigate an accusation of misconduct, decide which evidence to consider, and produce a report recommending an outcome. Under the new rules, the final decision maker must be a different person than the investigator, and a finding of responsibility can only be rendered after a hearing in which a representative for the accused is able to pose questions to the accuser—i.e., cross-examination.
Importantly, the new rules narrow the scope of actionable sexual harassment to exclude conduct that ought to be protected under the First Amendment. Obama-era guidance had defined sexual harassment as "any unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature." The new rules keep this definition but add that the conduct must be offensive to a reasonable person, severe, and pervasive. In practice, this should mean that schools will no longer initiate Title IX investigations that impugn free speech.

Catherine Lhamon, current chair of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights and the former Obama administration official who presided over the changes that compromised due process, slammed the reforms as "taking us back to the bad old days, that predate my birth, when it was permissible to rape and sexually harass students with impunity."
oh for fricks sake

This hits near and dear. Honestly this may go down for me as the biggest success of the Trump administration.

Put a Democrat back in the White House & they will change it back to the prior Obama rules. Elections matter. Vote in November.

This will literally cause the rape and deaths of millions of women!

As it should be. People shouldn't be punished for an accusation.

Shouldn't be an educational matter at all IMO. Strictly criminal. Have rules in place to expel students that are found guilty in the court of law.

You would think we would have run out of people by now. We should all be dead.

I would guess they only changed this because Joe Biden was involved with it and now he is being accused of sexual assault.

Cue the outrage and virtue signaling from liberals and loser sportswriters looking to get clicks.
NO ONE is condoning rape and/or sexual harassment. But this shite had become a complete fricking kangaroo court that was almost the complete antithesis of the American criminal justice system, which is arguably the fairest to the accused in the entire world.
I know this isn't a criminal court. But the minimal degree of due process afforded to the accused was a travesty.
