Mandatory Title IX training delays lodge openings
Article here. Excerpt:
'Five fraternity lodges opened last Friday night, a later opening date than in previous years. The reason for the late opening date is 90 percent of each fraternity had to attend Title IX training for them to have guests at their lodges.
...
The fraternities will be enforcing stricter registration at their lodges this year to keep track of all the guests, said Will Cook, president of KA. The Title IX training is “meant to make sure the guests and brothers are safe and avoid any misunderstandings about sexual intent, hazing, bullying, etc.” Cook said.
...
“All in all, I think that the message that Title IX training conveys should not be targeted to one group of men for the sole reason of affiliation,” Southall said. “If the safety of our Westhampton College classmates is the priority, then training should be available for all men.”'

And the female students?
Do sorority sisters have to do this? Female students generally? Will they be told they must adhere to social practices and norms that require them to behave only as equals to men-- including adherence to all the same nutty rules being propagated these days at colleges meant (seemingly) to be applied only to the guys?
Title IX: It's about equality, but only if you're female.
