Professor accused of violating Title IX over an article has been cleared

Laura Kipnis, a Northwestern University professor who was accused of violating a federal discrimination law over an article she wrote, has been cleared of any wrongdoing.

Kipnis’ February article detailed how colleges and universities — and Northwestern, specifically — have been mishandling allegations of sexual assault. But she wasn’t upset for the accusers, she was unhappy over the way “paranoia” about sexual assault has led to a complete disregard for due process and common sense.
