Quote:Nungesser's lawsuit also faults Columbia for bestowing Magna Cum Laude honors * upon Sulkowicz, honors that are "based not on GPA alone, but on the high quality of academic achievement, departmental recommendations and outstanding work beyond which is required/or the degree." Nungesser alleges that since Sulkowicz's time at Columbia has been defined by her mattress project, the honor was another instance of the university "directly rewarding, encouraging and celebrating Emma's role in the gender-based discriminatory harassment."

* Magna Cum Laude = "With great praise"; an honor added to a diploma or degree for work considered to be of much higher quality than average.

I'm betting the porn she made pushed her over the top.

Just what Columbia alumni want out of their school I'm sure.

I'm surprised no kid has bugged the office when decisions like this are made.

Newsweek article about the fallout suffered by the male student from false allegation.

http://www.newsweek.com/2015/12/18/other...03285.html

Quote:“I think probably a lot of colleges translated the ‘Dear Colleague’ letter as ‘favor the victim,’” says Brett Sokolow, executive director of the Association of Title IX Administrators and president of the National Center for Higher Education Risk Management, which consults with schools. “We very quietly started to say to our clients.… Don’t overcorrect on this because it will touch off a spate of litigation by accused individuals.”

The message, he adds, was “You went too far. Swing the pendulum back.” Sokolow says schools didn’t heed the warning and resented the suggestion. “[We] really took it on the chin. I mean, this was such an unpopular thing for us to say. And it does not feel good in any way, shape or form to have been absolutely right.”

Nungesser leads the swelling ranks of male students suing colleges, seeking damages and asking judges to force schools to clear their records. A database on the website of advocacy organization Boys and Men in Education says at least 90 men have filed such lawsuits in the past few years, and some lawyers say the total number is even higher. Until recently, the lawsuits focused on claims such as breach of contract and lack of due process. But increasingly, lawyers are throwing gender discrimination into the mix. Accused men are now echoing the complaints of their (most often) female accusers: that schools are violating Title IX, the federal law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in federally funded education programs.

Quote:Nungesser was appalled and scared. “Immediately, when I found out about the project, I reached out to Columbia. I said, ‘There is someone apparently doing a school-sponsored project about getting me either bullied or expelled. This can’t be going on. You should be doing something about it. I’m not feeling safe. This is against school regulation.’ And I was just completely—yeah, ignored is not even strong enough” for how little they seemed to care.

I see the writing on the walls that a lot of the normal population of young adults in America are starting to wise up to the fact that this ultra-PC culture is absurd and the unbalanced favor granted to women over men in all facets of social and legal settings needs to change. Its becoming a running gag on social media with a lot of men pointing out the laughable common everyday scenarios where women are coddled and men are damned over issues that are trivial at best and 100% fabricated at worst.

Mattress Slut's victim lost his lawsuit against the university:

http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/12/living/col...index.html

Can he appeal to a higher court now?

Here's the judge:
OBAMA NOMINATES GREGORY WOODS FOR U.S. DISTRICT COURT FOR SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK

Seems like there might be some kind of bias there...

Quote:On Friday, U.S. District Judge Gregory Woods dismissed Nungesser's Title IX suit, saying his claims do not constitute sex-based discrimination. The term "rapist" is not gender-based, he said.

"He assumes that because the allegations against him concerned a sexual act that everything that follows from it is 'sex-based' within the meaning of Title IX," the judge wrote. "He is wrong."

Woods added, "Taken to its logical extreme, Nungesser's position would lead to the conclusion that those who commit, or are accused of committing, sexual assault are a protected class under Title IX."

Woods also said the former student had not proven that the university deprived him of an education.

"The Court does not suggest that Nungesser's senior year at Columbia was pleasant or easy," Woods wrote in his opinion.

"Title IX, however, sets a high bar before a private plaintiff may recover and Nungesser has not alleged facts showing that he was effectively deprived of Columbia's educational opportunities."

In a statement released by their son's attorney, Karin and Andreas Nungesser said, "We all are disappointed by the decision of the court. But we look forward to taking on this opportunity that the court has given us to re-plead our case and amend the complaint.

"We still believe that it is untenable that the rule of law and the assumption of innocence ends behinds campus gates. If the court dismisses the amended complaint as well, all parents who are planning to send their sons to college should know: Innocent until proven guilty no longer applies on college campuses."

Nungesser has 30 days to submit an amended complaint before the dismissal is final.

The court basically said that his case was invalid because his treatment wasn't as a result of his gender. He can't use Title IX.

The case isn't dead, but his team needs to take another approach to show how Columbia fucked him over.

Meanwhile in AttentionWhoreVille:

Quote:She also balked at the idea that Nungesser would sue the school or her professor "for allowing me to make an art piece."

"It's ridiculous that he would read it as a 'bullying strategy,' especially given his continued public attempts to smear my reputation, when really it's just an artistic expression of the personal trauma I've experienced at Columbia," Sulkowicz wrote in an email. "If artists are not allowed to make art that reflects on our experiences, then how are we to heal?"

Mattress Girl backing away from her character assassination and claiming it was all just an 'Art Project' to help her heal.

I hope the guy gets his act together and takes Columbia to the cleaners.

That's good news, but I'm not exactly sure why he didn't just sue her for her the obvious fake rape charge first and foremost. Maybe I missed something but wouldn't that have been the most direct way to get a fair & just ruling?

Or is it the case that he felt the school had wronged him just as much if not more than this woman and thus he could get at her via a more broad lawsuit?

Money, chiefly. The university has a lot of it, and an Arts student has little, both at the time of studying and over the course of her working life.

You mean she hasn't gotten rich off of that art piece/porn vid of her recreating the rape?

I doubt he will get a significant victory. A court voting in his favour would open the floodgates and would have the women's lobby in a fit of hysteria. Regardless of how much of a piece of shit mattress girl is she is just one of the girls in their view and men cannot be allowed to get away with it.

Who was the legal representative of the victim?

Was he one of the guys from Harvard who lost a debate against NY inmates a few months ago?

Was he triggered by the decision of the Court? Did he ran away to a safe space to recover his ego?

The poor bastard had zero chance.

I took a first date to her art show and wrote a review. Trigger warning: it's somewhat sympathetic to Sulkowicz (and mostly self-absorbed shit about me).

The show is her standing in a gallery next to a replica of herself. You talk to her one on one. You can ask whatever you want, but if you get into the rape she directs you to the replica. It has an iPad in front of it that plays canned answers.

Talking to her was a bit like talking to a broadcast personality in "on" mode. I wanted to see if I could get an honest moment out of her. I sort of did.

I'm digging up this old thread because I need a place to put a disturbing piece of info that I just came across.

In a recent video featuring dissident feminists Christina Hoff Sommers and Camille Paglia, Sommers states that the University of North Carolina now employs "40 or 50 sexual assault...workshoppers." Paglia replies "What a waste of money!'

I've often said that feminism is being pushed because it's a jobs program for women. This proves it, but even I didn't know it was this bad. Men aren't even a majority on college campuses, yet they need that many crisis counselors? I don't think so.

Sommers makes the statement at about 21 minutes into this video if anyone wants to watch. She says these women spend all their time going back and forth to "conferences" and bringing wacky, ill-informed ideas back to campus. This is probably why we see weirder and weirder ideas in this area each year. They have to generate hysteria to keep themselves employed.

For example, the latest coming out of this college is that commenting on a woman's shoes or using the words "boyfriend" or "girlfriend" are now microaggressions.

(Regarding Sommers: I know she's become persona non grata because she's come down on Roosh on Twitter and was in favor of firing Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski.

I strongly disagree with her on those issues, but believe she is very right when she sticks with what she knows best: the excesses and insanity of college feminism. I don't think Sommers is well-informed on issues outside of her area of expertise, but her critique of college feminists in this video is dead-on.)

If your job depends on handling sexual assault caseloads, you can't afford to have empty files. There's not a whole lot of real rape on campus coming from effete beta and feminized guys. So you need to keep lowering the bar of what constitutes "sexual assault."

This system absolutely requires hysteria to keep it afloat and keep these pigs employed.

I know there's a lot of "dislike" towards "female anti-feminists" however I find it's not so much that women like Sommers and Lauren Southern are anti-feminist but rather they are "pro-logic" because they understand how unnecessary feminism is.

Its similar to those groups that fight racism but depend on money from the government. So there are always new reports from them how racist the society is that they can get more money to fight it.
