[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC is at an unnamed SLAC - and was falsely accused of a Title IX violation.  After months of the process the accuser was told that what they accused of was not unwanted based on evidence (texts to friends and family)  However, my child and the accuser are not supposed to be within a certain distance of each other.
On a small campus and with a small student body this is really limiting. 
I believe on a less progressive campus, the accusation would have never moved forward.
This never crossed my mind as we were going through the process of figuring out the right school - but want others to have visibility for consideration[/quote]

LACs are small, gossipy (everyone seems to know everyone else's business) communities. Can be a wonderful experience for those who find their clique, but a nightmare for those who experience any type of social or other issue.

OP: Has your son considered transferring ? Tough accusation to live down. Very difficult to function in such a small environment with that label/reputation whether true or false.

Many males are fearful of initiating contact with another out of fear of being accused of sexual assault. Probably best to avoid intimate relations with other students at small schools unless a contract is signed consenting to physical relations while both are sober. Not kidding. Even then one can accuse the other of sexual assault because one person allegedly withdrew consent during the  up to then consensual interaction.[/quote]
It’s funny seeing a person defend an assaulter with a bunch of incel bs about not being able to initiate women or whatever. Stop assaulting women and you won’t get these accusations. [/quote]
How do you know she didn’t ask for it?[/quote]
And there it is folks! So much for the “this is complex” crowd.[/quote]

I assumed this was irony. Noone is idiot enough to think like this in 2025. 1955, maybe, but not today.[/quote]
Oh brother. You’re living in a time when Nick Fuentes has a massive following by the young men today. There’s a ton of men who believe this: https://www.adl.org/resources/article/nicholas-j-fuentes-five-things-know[/quote]

Sure, I see idiotic quasi-Nazi college kids thinking like this. (Their day will come.) But not the parents posting on DCUM![/quote]
