Every afternoon from 2 p.m., the presiding judge hears only one kind of case: misdemeanor charges against migrants for illegal entry into the United States. Defense attorneys call it the “1325” court, for the section of the federal \u003ca href=\"https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/8/1325\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">statute\u003c/a> that sets out charges and fines for the crime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A group of magistrate judges rotates through 2A. On the day KQED observed, Judge Barbara Major presided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Each of you are here because the United States has charged you with the misdemeanor crime of improper entry by an alien,” Major told a group of defendants sitting in a jury box, shackled at the ankles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the course of the next three hours, Major arraigned, sentenced and set bond for about a dozen people at a time. The Federal Defenders raised objection after objection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At one point, Sandoval objected to a new rule judges have implemented that limits motions by defense attorneys.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I understand the court’s orders that we’re not allowed to raise motions,” Sandoval said. “And if we would like to …”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You are allowed to,” Major responded. “You just have to do it in writing. And it can’t be today. I’m not going to get through my criminal calendar as it is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the new system, federal marshals bring migrants to the court directly from Border Patrol stations, where many detainees say they do not get enough food or sleep.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sandoval questioned whether the conditions of her client’s confinement could be a form of coercion, pushing him to plead guilty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To which Major, clearly exasperated, said, “Stop! Which one? Does he want to plead guilty today?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He does,” Sandoval said. “But I just haven’t had …”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“OK,” Major interrupted. “Then we’re good.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Major decided to hold Sandoval’s two cases over another day. She said she could not accept a plea unless it was made willingly and knowingly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around 5 p.m., Judge Major announced that the court had run out of time and she would carry over the cases of roughly a dozen defendants. These clients would spend another night in jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>6:30 p.m.: Regroup at the Federal Defenders Office\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Morgan, Davis and Sandoval retrieved their belongings and headed for home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis left to help his wife, who was taking care of their newborn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Morgan needed to get home to her 11-month-old twins, but she and Sandoval stayed a few minutes longer to discuss what had happened in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new court procedures put defense attorneys and judges at cross-purposes, Sandoval said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a tension: We want to make sure that we are asserting our client’s rights during their initial appearance,” she said. But the court’s interest “is to make sure that these clients are processed as quickly as possible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sandoval said that friction was evident in the courtroom where Judge Major had “50-plus matters on calendar and not enough time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Morgan echoed that concern.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This separate court is just about processing a number of cases as quickly as possible,” she said. “The only way that happens is when people are complicit in giving up the rights that their clients have.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Morgan said Federal Defenders plans to keep pushing back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our plan honestly is to keep it up until either we’re all held in contempt, or we’re shackled ourselves, or until this stops,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Why Adopt Operation Streamline Now?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s unclear why \u003ca href=\"https://www.casd.uscourts.gov/SitePages/Judges.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Barry Moskowitz\u003c/a>, the chief judge of the federal court in San Diego, agreed to the expedited hearings. Moskowitz declined to answer questions about the changes at the court and did not issue a public order when they took effect in July.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, Moskowitz convened a \u003ca href=\"https://www.casd.uscourts.gov/Rules/GeneralOrders/Lists/General%20Orders/Attachments/205/General%20Order%20671%20Criminal%20Case%20Management%20Committee.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">committee\u003c/a> of judges and attorneys to discuss how to handle the increased caseload under the Trump administration’s zero tolerance policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The U.S. Attorney has advised the Court that he intends to substantially increase the prosecution of illegal entry cases, including at least 100 misdemeanor cases a week,” Moskowitz wrote in a court order. “The increase has and will cause strains, issues and problems.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Federal Defenders office won some concessions, such as setting a maximum caseload of four clients for each of its attorneys. Federal prosecutors also agreed that if they could not provide clients’ records to defense attorneys by a daily deadline, they would drop the charges. An unknown number of cases have been dismissed since Operation Streamline took effect in San Diego.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Prosecutions of Other Federal Crimes\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics believe the administration’s policy of prosecuting all illegal border-crossers is a misuse of resources that has resulted in a drop in prosecutions for more serious drug and trafficking crimes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A recent \u003ca href=\"http://trac.syr.edu/immigration/reports/524/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">report\u003c/a> by \u003ca href=\"http://trac.syr.edu/immigration/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse\u003c/a>, a data research organization at Syracuse University, found that in border region courts the number of prosecutions of non-immigration related crimes dropped from a total of 1,093 in March 2018 to 703 prosecutions in June 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Unless crimes are suddenly less prevalent in the districts along the southwest border, the odds of being prosecuted for many federal offenses have declined,” the report found. “The declining number of prosecutions has already begun to show up in the Southern District of California, in New Mexico, and in the Southern District of Texas.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of California disputed the TRAC findings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an Aug. 10 email, Kelly Thornton wrote, “Our overall prosecutions of non-immigration matters are on track to exceed last year’s.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Every afternoon from 2 p.m., the presiding judge hears only one kind of case: misdemeanor charges against migrants for illegal entry into the United States. Defense attorneys call it the “1325” court, for the section of the federal \u003ca href=\"https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/8/1325\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">statute\u003c/a> that sets out charges and fines for the crime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A group of magistrate judges rotates through 2A. On the day KQED observed, Judge Barbara Major presided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Each of you are here because the United States has charged you with the misdemeanor crime of improper entry by an alien,” Major told a group of defendants sitting in a jury box, shackled at the ankles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the course of the next three hours, Major arraigned, sentenced and set bond for about a dozen people at a time. The Federal Defenders raised objection after objection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At one point, Sandoval objected to a new rule judges have implemented that limits motions by defense attorneys.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I understand the court’s orders that we’re not allowed to raise motions,” Sandoval said. “And if we would like to …”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You are allowed to,” Major responded. “You just have to do it in writing. And it can’t be today. I’m not going to get through my criminal calendar as it is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the new system, federal marshals bring migrants to the court directly from Border Patrol stations, where many detainees say they do not get enough food or sleep.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sandoval questioned whether the conditions of her client’s confinement could be a form of coercion, pushing him to plead guilty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To which Major, clearly exasperated, said, “Stop! Which one? Does he want to plead guilty today?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He does,” Sandoval said. “But I just haven’t had …”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“OK,” Major interrupted. “Then we’re good.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Major decided to hold Sandoval’s two cases over another day. She said she could not accept a plea unless it was made willingly and knowingly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around 5 p.m., Judge Major announced that the court had run out of time and she would carry over the cases of roughly a dozen defendants. These clients would spend another night in jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>6:30 p.m.: Regroup at the Federal Defenders Office\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Morgan, Davis and Sandoval retrieved their belongings and headed for home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis left to help his wife, who was taking care of their newborn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Morgan needed to get home to her 11-month-old twins, but she and Sandoval stayed a few minutes longer to discuss what had happened in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new court procedures put defense attorneys and judges at cross-purposes, Sandoval said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a tension: We want to make sure that we are asserting our client’s rights during their initial appearance,” she said. But the court’s interest “is to make sure that these clients are processed as quickly as possible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sandoval said that friction was evident in the courtroom where Judge Major had “50-plus matters on calendar and not enough time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Morgan echoed that concern.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This separate court is just about processing a number of cases as quickly as possible,” she said. “The only way that happens is when people are complicit in giving up the rights that their clients have.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Morgan said Federal Defenders plans to keep pushing back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our plan honestly is to keep it up until either we’re all held in contempt, or we’re shackled ourselves, or until this stops,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Why Adopt Operation Streamline Now?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s unclear why \u003ca href=\"https://www.casd.uscourts.gov/SitePages/Judges.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Barry Moskowitz\u003c/a>, the chief judge of the federal court in San Diego, agreed to the expedited hearings. Moskowitz declined to answer questions about the changes at the court and did not issue a public order when they took effect in July.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, Moskowitz convened a \u003ca href=\"https://www.casd.uscourts.gov/Rules/GeneralOrders/Lists/General%20Orders/Attachments/205/General%20Order%20671%20Criminal%20Case%20Management%20Committee.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">committee\u003c/a> of judges and attorneys to discuss how to handle the increased caseload under the Trump administration’s zero tolerance policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The U.S. Attorney has advised the Court that he intends to substantially increase the prosecution of illegal entry cases, including at least 100 misdemeanor cases a week,” Moskowitz wrote in a court order. “The increase has and will cause strains, issues and problems.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Federal Defenders office won some concessions, such as setting a maximum caseload of four clients for each of its attorneys. Federal prosecutors also agreed that if they could not provide clients’ records to defense attorneys by a daily deadline, they would drop the charges. An unknown number of cases have been dismissed since Operation Streamline took effect in San Diego.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Prosecutions of Other Federal Crimes\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics believe the administration’s policy of prosecuting all illegal border-crossers is a misuse of resources that has resulted in a drop in prosecutions for more serious drug and trafficking crimes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A recent \u003ca href=\"http://trac.syr.edu/immigration/reports/524/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">report\u003c/a> by \u003ca href=\"http://trac.syr.edu/immigration/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse\u003c/a>, a data research organization at Syracuse University, found that in border region courts the number of prosecutions of non-immigration related crimes dropped from a total of 1,093 in March 2018 to 703 prosecutions in June 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Unless crimes are suddenly less prevalent in the districts along the southwest border, the odds of being prosecuted for many federal offenses have declined,” the report found. “The declining number of prosecutions has already begun to show up in the Southern District of California, in New Mexico, and in the Southern District of Texas.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of California disputed the TRAC findings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The group characterized the pending settlement, which also includes the expansion of an existing tide pool program for students and of limited tours for certain non-profit groups as “fair and reasonable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe the settlement reflects an appropriate balance of interests – including managed public access to the beach and the continued privacy and security of the Ranch residents,” Monte Ward, president of the Hollister Ranch Owners Association said in the written statement. “It also assures that the valuable natural resources along the coastline will be respected and protected into the future.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The judge will decide whether to give final approval to the settlement after a final hearing on Sept. 10.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, near San Francisco, Silicon Valley billionaire, Vinod Khosla, \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2018/02/23/silicon-valley-billionaire-takes-case-over-public-beach-access-to-u-s-supreme-court/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">has been fighting for years to block the beach-going public from crossing his land\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After losing in the state’s lower courts, the Sun Microsystems co-founder is now asking the U.S. Supreme Court to hear his challenge to the California Coastal Act.

The 29-year-old Saudi woman has a lot at stake.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just a few weeks before the ban was lifted on what was officially known as \"Driving Day,\" June 24, Saudi security officials jailed more than a dozen women activists, some of whom have advocated for the right to drive since the 1990s. In what appeared to be a government-sponsored, front-page smear campaign, Saudi newspapers published the women's names, claiming they were \"traitors.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's horrifying and it's very scary, what is happening right now,\" Damanhoori says about the sweeping arrests of activists on unspecific charges. \"We still don't know why, why now, we still don't have clear answers.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Damanhoori, the driving reform — something backed by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, hailed as a progressive reformer by many supporters — signaled that women drivers and women workers might be part of the kingdom's plan to modernize and diversify the oil-dependent economy. But it went only so far: Saudi Arabia's sweeping guardianship rules remain in place. Every Saudi woman is required to have a male guardian — a husband, uncle, son — who makes major life decisions on her behalf, even if she's an adult.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Damanhoori has been speaking out against the guardianship laws from San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Women cannot study, cannot work, cannot even travel without male permission or a male guardian.

He had to give his consent for her to travel to the U.S. Under Saudi law, called \u003cem>mahram\u003c/em> in Arabic, Damanhoori had to have a male relative accompany her to the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She says her father accompanied her to California to enroll in her courses and gave permission for her to stay on without a \u003cem>mahram\u003c/em>, but when he got back to Saudi Arabia, she says, he changed his mind.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She wrote about these events in a memoir for her master's thesis, in which she recounts a call she received from the Saudi Embassy in Washington, D.C.:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>' \"Who is your \u003cem>mahram\u003c/em>?'

After graduation in 2017, she got a job in high tech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She has also applied for political asylum in the U.S. Her asylum claim is that the guardianship system puts her in danger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My story with my father, and — what would happen if I go back to Saudi,\" she says, is the official narrative she submitted to U.S. officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She claims her father has been abusive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He denies abusing his daughter, but says if she returns to Saudi Arabia, he will never give permission for her to leave again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Damanhoori now sees her role as an outside voice for Saudi women's rights. She gives talks in the Bay Area, uploaded to YouTube to reach an audience back home. She has regained her voice, she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The more I spoke up — the more I went in public, all the noises in my head just became lower,\" she says. \"It's really important to speak loud for these women who are being abused, to never give up.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Women's March Global, a New York City-based international organization that helps amplify women's voices, is \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/womens-march-global/hold-saudi-arabia-accountable-619b3cc8e90b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">helping Damanhoori get her message out\u003c/a>.

New reforms in the kingdom don't include political openings. Critical voices have been silenced.

Education Secretary Betsy DeVos issued the new guidance last fall, after scrapping Obama-era rules that she said were forcing schools to violate the due process rights of the accused. But survivors’ advocates filed a federal lawsuit shortly after, arguing DeVos’ replacement guidelines discriminate against alleged victims and discourage them from reporting assaults.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The message that is sent is that the administration believes that women who report sexual harassment and violence are liars,” says Jennifer Reisch, legal director of Equal Rights Advocates, one of three groups who brought the lawsuit. She spoke to reporters Thursday, after a hearing on the lawsuit at the U.S. District Court in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DeVos’ interim guidelines allow schools to demand a higher standard of evidence that would make it tougher to prove an assault, permit schools to hear appeals only from the accused, and let investigations go on for an indefinite amount of time. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>None of that was allowed in the Obama era.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The prior administration also used to require schools to protect alleged victims during investigations; now, that’s up to schools’ discretion. And the old norm of making the accused student stay away from the accuser is now considered unfair. Schools are supposed to be even-handed — prompting some to rely on “no-contact” orders that apply mutually to both students. But Reisch argues that putting the onus on alleged victims unfairly punishes them, by restricting where they can go and live.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is sending a message that you come forward at your peril,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Robin Thurston, a senior counsel for the Democracy Forward Foundation and one of the attorneys bringing the lawsuit against the Trump administration’s guidance says that “survivors are being chilled from coming forward.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The guidance harms women,” Thurston says. “And we think there’s really significant evidence that the decision-makers at the Department of Education were motivated by a view that women and girls in general make false accusations of sexual assault.

Jackson later apologized for the “flippant” remark, insisting it poorly characterized her actual beliefs. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuit also cites comments from President Trump, who has dismissed women who’ve accused him as “phony accusers” out for “some free fame.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This discriminatory and stereotyped view of women and girls has become formal White House policy” the suit argues, and the “administration’s animus toward woman gives license to … Executive branch decision makers who share the same discriminatory views.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Government officials declined to comment on pending litigation, but in court papers, attorneys argue that a “handful of statements” do not prove “sexism” or discriminatory intent. They argue the case should be thrown out on procedural grounds, because the plaintiffs haven’t sufficiently established that they were harmed by the new guidance, and because the guidance is only temporary anyway.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Defense attorney Justin Dillon, who represents students accused of sexual assault and who’s not involved with the case, calls it “completely frivolous.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11681657\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/ap_17250578528580-e29ca125915e0a954a2f2c4c03069c9f19ad33b3-800x600.jpg\" alt='Sonja Breda, 23, right, holds a sign saying \"Stop Betsy\" as a group of survivors of sexual violence and their supporters gathered to protest proposed changes to Title IX before a speech by Education Secretary Betsy DeVos on Sept. 7, 2017, at the George Mason University Arlington, Va., campus.' width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11681657\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/ap_17250578528580-e29ca125915e0a954a2f2c4c03069c9f19ad33b3-800x600.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/ap_17250578528580-e29ca125915e0a954a2f2c4c03069c9f19ad33b3-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/ap_17250578528580-e29ca125915e0a954a2f2c4c03069c9f19ad33b3-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/ap_17250578528580-e29ca125915e0a954a2f2c4c03069c9f19ad33b3-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/ap_17250578528580-e29ca125915e0a954a2f2c4c03069c9f19ad33b3-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/ap_17250578528580-e29ca125915e0a954a2f2c4c03069c9f19ad33b3-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/ap_17250578528580-e29ca125915e0a954a2f2c4c03069c9f19ad33b3-960x720.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/ap_17250578528580-e29ca125915e0a954a2f2c4c03069c9f19ad33b3-240x180.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/ap_17250578528580-e29ca125915e0a954a2f2c4c03069c9f19ad33b3-375x281.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/ap_17250578528580-e29ca125915e0a954a2f2c4c03069c9f19ad33b3-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sonja Breda, 23, right, holds a sign saying “Stop Betsy” as a group of survivors of sexual violence and their supporters gathered to protest proposed changes to Title IX before a speech by Education Secretary Betsy DeVos on Sept. 7, 2017, at the George Mason University Arlington, Va., campus. \u003ccite>(Jacquelyn Martin/AP)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Dillon was the lawyer who sued the Obama administration in 2016, arguing its guidance was unlawful because it didn’t go through the proper approval process. But he says that case was different because it specifically named a student and a school harmed by the policy. That lawsuit was withdrawn after the Obama-era guidance was revoked by the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dillon calls DeVos’ September 2017 guidance a “good tonal shift, and a good signal to universities that the era of ignoring due process is over.” While he says he’s disappointed that it hasn’t yet sparked more changes in campus policies, he says campuses that are making changes are making things more fair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, he says DeVos’ new rules protect students from being “ambushed” without knowing the charges or evidence against them, and interim measures now tend to be less “draconian.” And if not, Dillon says, the new guidance makes it easier to assert accused students’ due process rights, as happened when a school kicked one of his clients off campus while an investigation was still pending.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I went to them and cited the guidance and said, ‘You can’t do this, you’re interfering with his education,’ ” he recalls. “And in that case I was able to persuade them to let him back on campus.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For schools, the change has brought some measure of confusion. Most are taking a wait-and-see approach, as DeVos is expected to propose permanent rules this fall. It may take until the end of the school year, or longer, for those rules to be finalized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, campuses continue to face lawsuits from alleged victims and increasingly successful legal challenges from accused students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In a lot of ways, it does feel like you’re a bit caught in the middle,” says Martha Alexander, executive director of the Office Of Institutional Equity and Equal Opportunity and Title IX coordinator for the University of Kentucky.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>UK just changed its policy in June. It keeps the standard of evidence low, but Alexander says “to make it a more balanced policy to make sure all parties had a fair shot,” it builds in more due process protections for accused students. Hearing panels now need to be unanimous when finding a student at fault, and only accused students are now allowed to bring appeals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that this policy, and these changes, really is a step towards getting to a more fair system,” Alexander says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many campuses say they welcome what they see as more freedom to set rules as they see fit, with less onerous oversight from the government. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peter McDonough, vice president and general counsel for the American Council on Education, a group that represents college and university presidents, says many college presidents are no longer operating in constant fear of the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights, which oversees enforcement of Title IX, the federal law that bars gender discrimination in education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in the days of the Obama administration, when an individual student complained to the OCR about his or her school, the office would not only investigate that case — it would automatically trigger a systemic investigation of the school, checking for anything else that might be amiss, which could take years. Campuses felt investigations would stay open “until something was found,” McDonough says, which was viewed as a “gotcha approach.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the Trump administration, a student complaint to the government is treated more like an isolated incident. McDonough says schools now see the government as more ally than adversary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Catherine Lhamon, assistant secretary for civil rights in the Department of Education during the Obama administration, says the OCR must be more aggressive in trying to uncover whether schools are handling all cases fairly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If the government only investigates [complaints that a student] thinks to bring to the government, the government’s not doing its job,” she says. “And I worry every day that [schools are getting] effectively a pass on complying with the law. And that will ruin young lives,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if the Trump administration’s approach prompts some schools to ease up on how they handle sexual assault cases, it’s also already prompting others schools to double down, according to Andrew Miltenberg, an attorney who has represented hundreds of accused students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s driven very much by personal politics … as opposed to institutional policy,” he says. “There has been a very palpable sense of, ‘Hell no! Women have rights, and I’m not turning around and changing how we treat rape victims just because we have Donald Trump as a president.’ I’ve heard it too many times to discount,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Miltenberg says policy corrections are needed, but they must be consistent and measured. Campuses that flout due process protections are as troubling, he says, as schools that are now meting out probations for offenses that used to get expulsions. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

Jackson later apologized for the “flippant” remark, insisting it poorly characterized her actual beliefs. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuit also cites comments from President Trump, who has dismissed women who’ve accused him as “phony accusers” out for “some free fame.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This discriminatory and stereotyped view of women and girls has become formal White House policy” the suit argues, and the “administration’s animus toward woman gives license to … Executive branch decision makers who share the same discriminatory views.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Government officials declined to comment on pending litigation, but in court papers, attorneys argue that a “handful of statements” do not prove “sexism” or discriminatory intent.

But he says that case was different because it specifically named a student and a school harmed by the policy. That lawsuit was withdrawn after the Obama-era guidance was revoked by the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dillon calls DeVos’ September 2017 guidance a “good tonal shift, and a good signal to universities that the era of ignoring due process is over.” While he says he’s disappointed that it hasn’t yet sparked more changes in campus policies, he says campuses that are making changes are making things more fair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, he says DeVos’ new rules protect students from being “ambushed” without knowing the charges or evidence against them, and interim measures now tend to be less “draconian.” And if not, Dillon says, the new guidance makes it easier to assert accused students’ due process rights, as happened when a school kicked one of his clients off campus while an investigation was still pending.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I went to them and cited the guidance and said, ‘You can’t do this, you’re interfering with his education,’ ” he recalls. “And in that case I was able to persuade them to let him back on campus.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For schools, the change has brought some measure of confusion. Most are taking a wait-and-see approach, as DeVos is expected to propose permanent rules this fall. It may take until the end of the school year, or longer, for those rules to be finalized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, campuses continue to face lawsuits from alleged victims and increasingly successful legal challenges from accused students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In a lot of ways, it does feel like you’re a bit caught in the middle,” says Martha Alexander, executive director of the Office Of Institutional Equity and Equal Opportunity and Title IX coordinator for the University of Kentucky.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>UK just changed its policy in June. It keeps the standard of evidence low, but Alexander says “to make it a more balanced policy to make sure all parties had a fair shot,” it builds in more due process protections for accused students. Hearing panels now need to be unanimous when finding a student at fault, and only accused students are now allowed to bring appeals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that this policy, and these changes, really is a step towards getting to a more fair system,” Alexander says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many campuses say they welcome what they see as more freedom to set rules as they see fit, with less onerous oversight from the government. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peter McDonough, vice president and general counsel for the American Council on Education, a group that represents college and university presidents, says many college presidents are no longer operating in constant fear of the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights, which oversees enforcement of Title IX, the federal law that bars gender discrimination in education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in the days of the Obama administration, when an individual student complained to the OCR about his or her school, the office would not only investigate that case — it would automatically trigger a systemic investigation of the school, checking for anything else that might be amiss, which could take years. Campuses felt investigations would stay open “until something was found,” McDonough says, which was viewed as a “gotcha approach.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the Trump administration, a student complaint to the government is treated more like an isolated incident. McDonough says schools now see the government as more ally than adversary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Catherine Lhamon, assistant secretary for civil rights in the Department of Education during the Obama administration, says the OCR must be more aggressive in trying to uncover whether schools are handling all cases fairly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If the government only investigates [complaints that a student] thinks to bring to the government, the government’s not doing its job,” she says. “And I worry every day that [schools are getting] effectively a pass on complying with the law. And that will ruin young lives,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if the Trump administration’s approach prompts some schools to ease up on how they handle sexual assault cases, it’s also already prompting others schools to double down, according to Andrew Miltenberg, an attorney who has represented hundreds of accused students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s driven very much by personal politics … as opposed to institutional policy,” he says. “There has been a very palpable sense of, ‘Hell no! Women have rights, and I’m not turning around and changing how we treat rape victims just because we have Donald Trump as a president.’ I’ve heard it too many times to discount,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
