Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

Colleagues,

 

I pass along word today that the University of the Pacific won summary judgement on all counts of the Title IX lawsuit arising from the gang rape last year that received so much negative press amidst allegations of administrative inaction.  Congratulations to NASPA President Elizabeth Griego, who is their VPSA, and her staff on a decision that is strongly supportive of the conduct process at the U of the P.  Their dedication to doing the right thing has my deep respect, and I hope the maligning of their reputations and that of the University of the Pacific can now be put straight. 

 

Regards,
Brett A. Sokolow
