NCFM Carolinas President Published in Letters to the Editor re: DeVos Is Restoring Order to America’

There is much to admire in the direction that Mrs. DeVos is driving in education. Restoring discipline in public schools, and doing so equitably, is a national priority. Those pleased by the guidance repeal should recognize its place in the Education Department’s wider restoration of fairness in American schools. Mrs. DeVos is wise for recognizing a fundamental due-process right to cross-examine one’s accuser in higher-ed disciplinary hearings, and federal courts are increasi

‘Innocent Until Proven Guilty’? Not At Most American Universities

Students attending America’s colleges and universities believe they should receive proper due process if they are accused of breaking campus rules, yet most schools fail to provide them with such fairness. A recent report from the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) found some alarming statistics about the nation’s top 53 institutions of higher learning, including that nearly three-quarters of them do not presume the innocence of students accused of a range o

DeVos Rule on Sexual Harassment Restores Primacy of Law

The Department of Education’s new rule on sexual harassment has been challenged as protecting schools but not students. In reality, however, DOE’s proposal brings its sexual harassment rules back into compliance with the Constitution and laws. This should be an example for other administrative agencies that have moved beyond their statutory authority. Before Secretary Betsy DeVos’s initiative, DOE’s rules on sexual harassment had no statutory foundation. The Supreme Court had

Cross-examination is essential, even in Title IX investigations

In condemning regulations that would grant the right of cross-examination (through advocates) to both sides in Title IX tribunals, the Dec. 15 editorial “Don’t retraumatize sexual assault victims” should have directed its criticism not at Education Secretary Betsy DeVos but instead at the due process clause. After all, it’s that section of the Constitution that has guided federal court decisions on this issue. “Due process,” the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit noted

How does it feel to be wrongfully accused?

From an early age, it was instilled into me that our criminal justice system should be, (i) recompensing the victims and families who have fallen afoul to criminal behaviour, (ii) negating the risk of criminal offences happening in the future. The overarching theme had always been ‘protecting the innocent’. Later in life, I find myself asking, has the criminal justice system lived up to my expectations? Perhaps, you may ask yourself the same thing? There was only one career p

FIRE Spotlight on Due Process 2018 report

Colleges and universities across the country are failing to afford their students due process and fundamental fairness in their disciplinary proceedings. These institutions investigate and punish offenses ranging from vandalism and housing violations to felonious acts of sexual assault, handling many cases that are arguably better left to courts and law enforcement. But their willingness to administer what is effectively a shadow justice system has not been accompanied by a w

73% of Top U.S. Universities Do Not Guarantee the Presumption of Innocence in Title IX Sexual Miscon

Among the top-ranked universities in the country, only about half require impartial fact-finders in sexual misconduct adjudication—and three-quarters make no guarantees that accused students will be presumed innocent until proven guilty. Those findings are included in a timely report from the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) that surveyed U.S. News & World Report's top 53 universities' due process protections for students involved in disputes relating to T

Boys need better access to mental health care. Why aren't they getting it?

Throughout high school, Alexander Sanchez was severely depressed. He thought about suicide, and he didn’t know how to explain what was wrong or ask for help. Instead, Sanchez said that whenever he wasn’t in school, he would lie in bed all day, “not eating, not being happy, being almost not there.” It wasn’t until Sanchez, who grew up in College Station, Texas, got to college that a friend convinced him to see a psychologist, who diagnosed him with depression. In hindsight, Sa

A sea change for sexual conduct on campus

On Nov. 16, controversial U.S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos issued new Title IX rules on how schools receiving federal funds are to handle accusations of sexual misconduct. Title IX is the 1972 regulation that prohibits gender discrimination in education. Its definition of sexual harassment had expanded dramatically over the years while due process for those accused had shrunk. DeVos's revision returns to due process. A furor greeted its release. The changes do not need co

It’s Time for Republicans to Show They Truly Care About Due Process

In October, Republican senators were the champions of due process. They argued that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh must be presumed innocent in the face of the uncorroborated sex-crime accusations that Democrats had rushed to endorse. Forty-nine Republicans (and one Democrat) then confirmed his nomination to the Supreme Court. “In evaluating any given claim of misconduct, we will be ill served in the long run if we abandon the presumption of innocence and fairness, tem
