You have the right to think what your are going to but that is false.
If a girl is raped and misses class time due to the emotional distress the school is obligated to work with her and the professor has zero say in that matter. It's really simple
Hoping we have other real topics to discuss here but this one is over. Some of you don't understand the legal issues universities have and it appears that isn't changing.
source? I just read the title 9 law, admitedly in outline form found here: Campus Sexual Assault: Suggested Policies and Procedures | AAUP
I saw nothing about what you were saying.
If you could point me in the drection where I can find your source I'd be interested in reading that.
I'd like to see his source too. I am a college professor and program director. I cannot tell one of my instructors they have to take a single student in a self study class up and beyond their regular class schedule. A self study class has to be taught minute for minute just like a regular class....and no, you can't just tell somebody they have to teach it.
Could possibly do it if you had a teacher who had a light teaching schedule at the time, but they would have to be qualified to teach said class.
It's really a no win situation for UT, and that's what sucks about Title IX. You can't win, which is why lawyers are jumping on these cases as fast as they can. The school will lose in court, but if they settle, they lose also.
That's why you see every school settling, because athletes do get treated differently than regular students. And star athletes get treated different than bench players.
And, everytime we punish differently, it's a violation of title IX... And no school wants to lose its federal funding which is what can happen if you take it to court

But, the rules say the accused is suspended from all school activities pending the outcome of the accusation. And, we didn't do that for all cases involved, whether the accusations were legit or not
How can a court that doles out different sentences all the time for exact scenerio crimes possibly settle this dispute?
When in doubt, check the UT Catalog:
""""""""""Class Attendance Guidelines for Extenuating Circumstances
In rare cases, students may have extenuating circumstances that make it impossible for them to attend all sessions of a class. These include military orders, court-imposed legal obligations, religious observances, extended illness, and participation in university, college, or unit sponsored activities that lead to clear experiential and educational outcomes. On the first day of class each term, or immediately after the student knows of the need to miss class because of one of these extenuating circumstances, the student should share with the instructor a document detailing the extenuating circumstance. The document should outline the dates on which classes will be missed. Students with documented extenuating circumstances should be allowed to make up missed examinations. Instructors have discretion to determine what coursework, beyond examinations, is available for make-up credit. Instructors who feel the required time away from class may be too much to allow a student to do well should consult with the student to determine whether, through extra effort and tutoring, the student may be able to achieve the learning outcomes of the class. If not, the instructor should recommend that the student withdraw from the course. If at all possible, the recommendation to withdraw from the class should occur before the end of the add/drop period. Students should consult with an academic advisor as soon as they know that a class must be dropped.""""""""""""
I don't see a single line, that says, check with Title IX, or get the Provost, or.......
The Paragraph is very simple to understand, furthermore, every UT student has a Catalog, I'm always amazed at the crack pipe fantasies some people come up with, rather than read the facts. Also, where in title IX does it state, a school will order their professors to create Independent studies programs, if so ordered, and do so in time to keep a student from not missing a thing???? My guess, most professors don't have the time, because of a phone call from an administrator, to immediately develop and institute an independent study program, be it do to injury, being an accused or accuser in a title IX complaint (law suit), or any other reason, it is just unrealistic-to say the Very Least.
Did we punish all athletes involved the same way?
No...
That's all the plaintiffs need to prove.
We are guilty, but it's a ****ty law with a no win situation.

There is zero scenario where a professor can't work with a student independently if they are forced to do so with a medical or legal issue
And yes I have been in a classroom lately and perhaps not even sitting in a desk listening so you might want to stop with the silly childish post you have zero freaking idea what you are talking about
You can tell the off season is almost here. Everyone is getting testy on VN. Calm down guys. Lot's of time between now and August. There will be plenty of dumb posts to rag on each other about.
