Title IX defense
A campus disciplinary proceeding is not a criminal case. The standard of proof is lower, the procedural protections are different, the timetable is compressed, and the consequences — suspension, expulsion, a transcript notation — can follow a person well beyond the institution. A criminal matter may also be running at the same time, and what is said in one can affect the other.

ToggleWhat this section covers
Pages in this section address campus disciplinary process: how an investigation is initiated and conducted, what an advisor may and may not do, how hearings and cross-examination operate, and how a campus proceeding interacts with any parallel criminal investigation.
