It’s called due process.

Nope. Due process is what the government owes its citizens before depriving them of life or liberty. It shapes criminal procedures not when you settle a civil case or whether you appeal a case when you know you were in the wrong. https://constitutioncenter.org/interactive-constitution/interpretation/amendment-xiv/clauses/701

Clearly you did not go to law school, because due process absolutely applies in civil matters.

Please enlighten us about how the due process clause requires you to appeal a decision you lost in a civil suit. Idiot pretend lawyer.

They’re not obligated to, but they have the legal right to do so.

But it’s really just a silly discussion because no one cares about this story other than RWNJs.

Really? I just did a search and the most recent decision was covered by pretty much every major newspaper in the country.

Links to recent coverage by WaPo and NYT?

Just a quick, not exhaustive, search for articles in the last few months (& not counting Fox, etc):

Months ago…

Why do you care about a seven year old case involving a different admin and students long gone? It’s weird that of all the protests and scandals on college campus much more recently, this is where the Fox News mouth breathers lose their collective sh*t. It’s like Oberlin is living rent free in their heads. Which is fun to watch. Carry on!

The original incident was over 5 years ago and the verdict was three years ago. What evidence is there that this has harmed Oberlin graduates? No one is paying attention to it anymore other that RWNJ news sites.

They have to pay 4 million in interest for not paying the 36 million suit. Tried to post in a previous thread but it was locked. Wondering if this hurts grads employment prospects? Conservatives seem to have gone from not even knowing the school to absolutely hating it.

Have spent two months in Europe and I can tell you something similar has happened here. The only people who have heard about Oberlin think the school has gone all nuts.

I just spent four weeks in Europe with my Obie and her sibling. And 95%+ of the people there have never heard of Oberlin (or W&M where my older kid goes. Sad to say UVA boosters that the blank looks continued when she said it was an in state college like UVA. Europe doesn’t care about UVA either). They asked if DDs was in college. She said yes, Oberlin. Blank look. There was one younger guy who was excited about DD’s Oberlin t-shirt because a high school friend had attended. There was an American guy who gave her the thumbs up because his grandson is an Obie. And because of the nature of our activities, we did run into a few people who knew of the Conservatory. That’s it.

I guarantee you that Europeans do not care about 99% of colleges, including but not limited to W&M and Oberlin. Which is fine. My Obie is getting a first rate science education, working as a research assistant, getting published and networking with visiting profs. She doesn’t need Europeans to have heard of Oberlin. She needs PhD labs to know the name. Based on the fact 60% of her department gets a PhD and the list always includes big names and national awards like Fulbrights, she’ll be fine.
