Abstract

This article explores the importance of due process in campus sexual assault cases, highlighting various instances where due process violations have occurred. It argues that due process is a fundamental principle that should be upheld in both the criminal justice system and on college campuses. The article also addresses the issue of false accusations in Title IX cases, suggesting that the current focus on feelings rather than facts has contributed to an increase in false allegations. The authors propose that the federal government should establish a minimum standard of due process in Title IX cases to protect the rights of the accused while addressing sexual assault on campuses.
