NBP: The country’s biggest advocate for civil liberties on U.S. campuses has filed a lawsuit that could blow up a key plank in the Obama administration’s campaign against college sexual assaults.
The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) is backing a lawsuit by John Doe, an anonymous former University of Virginia (UVA) law student who in January 2016 was found responsible for assaulting a female student during an alcohol-fueled sexual encounter back in 2013. Doe contends that the encounter was perfectly consensual and that his female counterpart showed no signs of being impaired by alcohol, let alone incapacitated.
While Doe was still allowed to receive his law degree, his degree was held up for a year, he has been banned from UVA’s campus for life, and his sexual assault finding is included on his school transcript. Instead of suing UVA, Doe and FIRE are going after the Obama administration, arguing that illegal Department of Education policies are responsible for damaging Doe’s legal career.

Destroying Due Procees on campus, while legitimizing the Dupe Process on campus. About what you’d expect from the Nutty Adjunct Professor.
Maybe I’m dense, but I don’t really understand why colleges are adjudicating rape cases anyhow. Rape is a crime and crimes are prosecuted in a court of law, not by a bunch of mouth breathing SJW pajama boys.
If you’re going to aim, aim big, aim high. GO FIRE!
The left still hasn’t figured out that giving extra rights to one group means taking basic rights away from others. Whenever that truism rears its inevitable head the appropriate response is to yell one of these: sexist, racist, Nazi, xenophobe, it’s Bush’s fault.
There’s a difference between a “right” and a “permission”.
I would expect the people of this foundation to know the difference.
