NOT WELCOME: Occidental Expels Student for Rape Under Standard So Low That the Accuser Could Have Been Found Guilty, Too. Why do men continue to go to college when it’s clear that they’re not welcome? Why give money to people who hate you?
By several accounts, the sex was consensual. The accuser sent Doe a text message beforehand asking him if he had a condom. She also texted a friend and clearly announced her intention to have sex with Doe.
After that night, the accuser spoke with several Occidental employees, including Danielle Dirks, an assistant professor of sociology. Dirks told the accuser that Doe “fit the profile of other rapists on campus in that he had a high GPA in high school, was his class valedictorian, was on [a sports team], and was ‘from a good family.'”
A week later, the accuser filed a sexual assault report against Doe.
