And it's less ridiculous to ruin someone over nothing more than an accusation? And the "it takes years to resolve a court case" point is bullshit because it doesn't take that long to press charges against someone if the evidence warrants it. Once charges are pressed the University/College is free to expel or suspend the Student as it sees fit. however in too many of these cases charges are not pressed due to lack of evidence of a crime being committed and the university/college takes it upon itself to dispense "justice"
Look at all the very successful lawsuits going through the courts by men who have been railroaded through they system for a simple drunken hookup.
again, the thing is, only 3% of rapists ever see the inside of a jail cell.
The universities are only protecting their students because law enforcement can't.
There have far more lawsuits filed by women who have been raped by guys that the university knew were a problem, but they refused to take action.
Baylor University reaches settlement in Texas gang rape lawsuit
In her lawsuit, the former student charged Baylor with turning a blind eye to sexual assaults to build a strong football team under then-coach Art Briles. She said she was aware of 52 incidents of rape by more than 30 football players between 2011 and 2014.
“Under Briles, the culture of Baylor football and rape became synonymous,” the lawsuit said, adding Baylor was doing nothing to stop it.
