National Conference on Campus Rape and Due Process, August 1 in Charlotte, N.C.

Posted on | July 15, 2016 | 11 Comments

Along with Ashe Schow, Wendy McElroy, attorney Eric Rosenberg and others, I have been invited to speak at this upcoming event:

The National Coalition For Men Carolinas, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, non-partisan human rights advocacy organization, is pleased to announce the “Forum on Campus Sexual Assault, Consent and Due Process” to be held August 1, 2016 at Central Piedmont Community College Central Campus in Charlotte, NC. The Forum will consist of prominent experts who will share insight into how universities are handling the complex and often confusing issues of Title IX related sexual misconduct cases, consent and due process.
With mounting political pressure applied by the federal government to get tough on campus sexual assault and fearful of losing federal funding, universities are removing male students from campus in record numbers with the highest risk associated with male students of color, fraternity members and male athletes.
Buoyed by the Administration’s dramatic expansion of the scope of Title IX and the issuance of the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) Dear Colleague letters on harassment (issued October 23, 2010) and sexual violence (issued April 4, 2011), allegations of sexual misconduct are becoming commonplace on college campuses resulting in what many describe as kangaroo court processes that presume guilt and deny adequate due process for accused students.
This forum is designed to take a critical look into the impact that the Dear Colleague letters are having on college campuses, students and the problematic issues surrounding the handling of sexual misconduct allegations by institutions of higher education.

    Please remind them that college hearings are not purely private and administrative. Colleges are funded by both students loan money as well as research and upkeep dollars. When DoE sent out the Dear Colleague Letter (“Nice college. Shame if you should lose it…”), taxpayer dollars were used as a threat. Once a Federal agency uses Federal dollars as a threat to follow a reinterpretation of the law, we are out of purely private “advice” and into the public sector. Once the public sector is involved, the Constitution needs be involved.

    Those religious among us to pray hard that this hearing is a true “hearing” and not just a place for “venting and ignoring.” It’s a shame that Janice Fiamengo is Canadian, because her voice would be very strong here.

    You’ll never make that speech because some leftist will bomb threat the venue or some other shady tactic. Bet

    Well it isn’t as if we didn’t already know we needed to abolish Title IX as well as the Department of Education following particular emphasis by the pertinent Inspectors Generals in investigating the Office for Civil Rights .

    https://www.justice.gov/ovw/local-resources#nc This is who will be watching you & reporting political violations directly to DOJ/OVW. They have been all along. If you cannot or will not recognize a regime political commissariat operating in your midst and in plain sight, you don’t even have the skills to know what it is you are dealing with: a federal occupation of local self-governance, carried out by unaccountable NPOs. These sex-crime scares are merely an excuse to infiltrate police, courts, district attorneys’ offices and colleges with federal power and federal dollars that none of the above can figure out how to operate without. The DC regime is holding your institutions under siege, and neither the causes for nor objectives of this have anything to do with protecting women.
