Article here. Excerpt:
'When Rep. Jared Polis, D-Colo., suggested yesterday that colleges be allowed to expel students accused of rape even when they were only 20 percent sure those students were guilty, he was applauded in the subcommittee hearing room.
The reaction outside of Rayburn 2261, though, was swift and vituperative. Perhaps the group with the most moral authority to rebuke Polis was Families Advocating Campus Equality.
Founded by three mothers of sons who were falsely accused of rape at their respective colleges, FACE has ample experience with campus disciplinary proceedings that are identified as “educational” by administrators but Kafkaesque by the accused and their loved ones.'
