After a local university in my area did a review of their processes some of the recommendations were pretty shocking. Things like "the accused should be allowed to present evidence", "the accused and accuser should be allowed to have or provided representation", "the accused should be notified of appeals". It's hard to have a response that isn't a WTF.gif to things like that.
I have a feeling that a lot of these actresses knew what they exactly what were doing. They made a bet, and now they want to blame the other side 100%.
I think that goes way too far.

Not an issue per se, but good to know.
Libertarians care a great deal about civil liberties so this perspective is also not a shock.
There is nothing objectionable in the "Dear Colleague" letter, and it articulates sound policy for American colleges. While it is true that colleges must adhere to a "preponderance of the evidence" standard or risk falling out of Title IX compliance, a) preponderance of the evidence is the appropriate standard to use in non-criminal proceedings, including and especially civil-rights violations which are what Title IX covers; b) colleges also risk falling out of compliance of Title IX if the accused and the complainant do not have equal access to information used at the hearing, or equal time and opportunity to present their respective cases.
Whenever disciplinary investigation by a school for sexual assault becomes a "kangaroo court", it is almost assuredly a CYA move on the part of the college staff to look like they are "doing something" about campus rape without following the procedures set forth by the government. But it's not only unfair and against the law, it's in violation of Title IX and the very letter the MGTOW crowd has been whinging about.
Oh, and Betsy DeVos is an idiot for overturning this policy.
