Sure, I'm not going to argue that.  But, was it that they are punishing them for the "behavior" or for sexual assault?  It seems they are arguing sexual assault occurred even though the prosecutors didn't come to that conclusion after reviewing all of the evidence.

And if you're going to take the argument that police departments are corrupt, then we can easily argue that schools have been implicit in destroying the lives of young men by not providing adequate due process (see Virginia and Duke).  Fact is, the vast majority of police departments and prosecutors offices are not corrupt, so to take a few bad apples and apply it to all is dishonest.  Lastly, it was not a he said, she said case.  It was a they said, she said, and three separate video clips contradicting her claim case.  It's disgusting this happened and was recorded, but in hindsight it looks like the recordings saved these men from prosecution.

Let's face it, universities are under all kinds of pressure from students on a myriad of issues.  It is in their best interest to stand on the side of caution from a publicity standpoint.
