In the news, Ginsburg weighs in on the side of due process.....
Ruth Bader Ginsburg Thinks Some College Title IX Trials Are Unfair to the Accused
An interesting excerpt....
Note that Ginsburg was asked about due process, but not campuses specifically. The fact that she immediately suggested college codes of conduct as an example of a policy that sometimes violates "the basic tenets of our system," says a great deal about the glaring unfairness of the modern approach to Title IX, the federal statute that requires universities to investigate sexual harassment and assault. And Ginsburg didn't just make note of the controversy; she explicitly said critics of the current procedures have a point.
One of those critics, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, has
rescinded some of the federal guidance that had contributed to the problem. A legacy of the Obama-era campus sexual misconduct, dictates the infamous 2011 "Dear Colleague" letter had instructed universities to follow sexual misconduct procedures that left little room for due process. The new administration
withdrew this letter last September, though most universities have insisted that they will continue to operate as before.
