New federal regulations released Friday will prevent colleges and coaches from suspending athletes accused of sexual misconduct while school officials investigate complaints against them.

The due process provision is one of several outlined in the U.S. Department of Education's final version of regulations governing how K-12 schools, colleges and universities respond to complaints of sexual harassment and violence under Title IX. The regulations, a draft version of which the Biden administration proposed in June 2022, are scheduled to go into effect Aug. 1.

Friday's release did not include provisions regarding the eligibility of transgender athletes, which had been included in an earlier Department of Education proposal. Officials separated that issue from the broader Title IX rules and those regulations are not expected until after November's presidential election. When asked during a call with reporters Thursday whether the delay was politically motivated, a senior administration official said those rules have a separate process, which is several months behind.

Yeah not sure when we let an accusation carry the same punishment as a conviction

Women who will complain can thank their fellow women who have weaponized accusations.

People will say this is an attack on women and women’s rights. When all it does is say “show your evidence so we can get a conviction. Then we will punish them”.

You know, so assholes can’t weaponize false accusations to ruin someone’s life. Which happens every day

Too many false accusations that were later proved to be wrong and costing the school buckets of money.

Bad comparison. They got due process (and won because of it).

Now all we need is for them to prosecute the accuser if they are proven false with the same vigor as they try to prosecute the accuse.

Not from the court of public opinion. That court shredded them before the truth came out.

Again still not a comparable situation because most of these title 9 examples never make it to the public

Goddamn this is why people hate lawyers in a nut shell. The Duke kids ultimately won (which has occurred multiple times with civil suits of falsely accused as well) but everyone can see the obvious parallels here. Busting out an actually when the comparison is 99.9% accurate is peak lawyer shite.

Yeah, that’s a great idea. Woman gets raped and can’t prove it so she is prosecuted for rape. That will help things.

This is good. They're regs creating due process requirements in Title 9 investigations.

The problem is that insidious stuff like these kangaroo courts get by because they are so banal and small scope.

The Duke scenario was one of the biggest stories of its era. Priming people to look for issues of abusing political power in this way is exactly why things like these Title 9 kangaroo courts are permitted to go on for so long. People need to be primed on the function, not the sensational output created by ad hoc amplification of certain results.

Wow. I think it is clear what I meant. If it is proven they are lying, then you prosecute them.

Please read that slowly so you can get my tone.
