U.S. colleges returning to campus sexual assault policies created during Trump’s first term

LA Times  

Colleges must revert to rules created by former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos that govern how complaints of sexual misconduct are investigated and how to settle cases in which students present differing accounts. Schools and universities responding to complaints of sexual misconduct must return to policies created during President Trump’s first term, with requirements for live hearings and more protections for accused students, according to new guidance issued Friday by the Education Department. It also reduced the liability for colleges, holding them responsible only if they act with “deliberate indifference.” Colleges already had been returning to DeVos’ 2020 rules in recent weeks after a federal judge in Kentucky overturned the Biden administration’s Title IX rules. The new memo says even investigations that started when Biden’s rules were in effect “should be immediately reoriented to comport fully with the requirements of the 2020 Title IX Rule.” A statement from the Education Department called Biden’s rules an “egregious slight to women and girls.” Trump’s new pick for Education secretary is Linda McMahon, a longtime ally known for building the World Wrestling Entertainment empire with her husband, Vince McMahon.
