Cops Say There Is No Evidence of Any Rape of "Jackie" at UVA Frat;
UVA President Teresa Sullivan Invites Falsely Accused Frat to Help Protect Against Sexual Assault

Didn't they already do that?

Are we pretending this happened because Feminists Will Cry if we speak the truth about it?

We're going to sort of back-door the idea that Phi Kappa Psi has something to repent for, eh?

But in any case, Phi Psi will become the first UVA fraternity to sign the new "Fraternal Organization Agreement" with the university administration. The pact obligates Greek organizations to baby-sit their guests and puts restrictions on what kinds of alcohol they can serve. Frat bedrooms will now be guarded.

It's not surprising that a pack of overbearing bureaucrats are peddling dubious safety requirements based in Victorian sexual morality--legislating morality and covering people in bubble wrap are two of their favorite things. The only surprise here is the timing. In a sane world, this would be an occasion for the angry villagers to lower their pitchforks and discuss the biases and processes that led them to the wrong conclusions.

If the left highlights a real outrage, institutions respond by advancing its agenda; if the left cooks up a completely false hoax, institutions respond by advancing its agenda.

After all, the hypothetical possibility that something like what Jackie claimed could have happened to someone else is a totally great reason to subtract from people's freedoms.
