Male Student Had Drunken Sex with Female Non-Student. Her Dad Called It Rape. Expulsion Imminent.
2nd March 2016
The University of Texas at Austin has recommended expulsion for a male student who was found responsible for sexual misconduct by the university’s Title IX bureaucrats. But the woman he supposedly raped didn’t formally accuse him—they remained friends and even flirted via text messages subsequent to the encounter.
In fact, it was the woman’s father who initiated the Title IX proceedings against the male student, “John Doe,” who is suing UT-Austin to prevent the university from expelling him.
The woman, “Jane Roe,” is not a UT-Austin student, which raises an important question: Should a university really have a responsibility to meddle in students’ private sex lives when parents of non-students file complaints?
The Title IX bureaucracy at UT-Austin evidently believes so.
Rules? We don’t need no stinkin’ rules.
