Nice job BYU.

My sources are telling me this came out a few weeks ago

As critical as I've been of the HC, I need to voice my support in equal measure

The amnesty (draft) actually extends much further than I expected it to. This is a good step

I think they did a good job on the report.
LaserCoug

That sounds really great on the surface and I'm very happy that BYU is

I think that line item of Pres Worthen's summary wasn't worded well
kccougar
10/26/16 10:02am
I'd be happy to discover that it was a mistaken summary
DapperDan
10/26/16 10:04am
This seems to be the relevant language of the report...

10/26/16 10:05am
That was the part of the report I saw as well
Linescratcher
10/26/16 10:19am
That honestly makes me wonder how they came up with that summary. They don't

Agreed. The HC should never have any info given to them from Title IX imo. Just
Windward_Coug
10/26/16 10:02am
If I remember correctly, Title IX requires investigation and punishment of perps by the university. You don't think
jaromp
10/26/16 10:29am
No, send that info to byu police. The HC has shown they will misuse whatever
Windward_Coug
10/26/16 10:32am
I would argue that the BYU police have been much worse. Isn't the Provo PD currently investigating why BYU police
jaromp
10/26/16 10:38am
Better than dragging in victims of sexual assault to a HC disciplinary council.
Windward_Coug
10/26/16 10:47am
What? it would only be to discipline the perpetrator, and it specifically states that victim info will be redacted
jaromp
10/26/16 10:50am
Just saying that's what they used to do. They aren't to be trusted with any
Windward_Coug
10/26/16 10:56am
They will absolutely notify police, but the Provo PD doesn't suspend students from school or take disciplinary action
jaromp
10/26/16 11:04am
Every other school on the planet manages to suspend and expel students without

Title IX office does its own investigations, not HCO

Wait. You are telling me you have a cynical side?
TN_Coug
10/26/16 10:09am
Shocking I know
DapperDan
10/26/16 11:22am
Here is the legit situation for the Title IX office to report to the Honor Code:

You are missing the investigation

How do other schools handle this? Do Title IX offices have the authority to
DapperDan

Yes, but its murky
Linescratcher

Thanks. I know there are no clear cut answers, but I think I'd prefer if the
DapperDan
10/26/16 11:41am
I don't think so. The final word on student discipline would be given by the School
kccougar
10/26/16 11:32am
The fact that these weren't already in place shows how awful the honor code was implemented. They really shared office
Kajdin

Duh! That's what it said. They stepped up and implemented necessary change

But will the media give this any attention? Seems doubtful since

Tribune will report with a three-sentence summary of the changes and a two-page rehash

They covered the Mormonandgay site in a positive light.

Good results. How about they just replace the HC office with Title IX staff?
cougarnerd
10/26/16 10:06am
I'd be good with that. Seems like they were basically the same staff before these changes. Just overhaul the staff
Kajdin
10/26/16 10:11am
Because they have different purposes and do different things.
Coach's Dad

Make the HCO part time...

It's President Worthen. He's a lawyer. All lawyers right good.

You're assuming a pretty immoral, cynical approach by students.
