So far, everyone is saying what I was thinking. Really was hoping that would be the case because I didn't want to seem like I was being overly sensitive to this sort of thing and I want to be fair to the male student. I'm still going to look for some more guidance on this from other sources, but this has been helpful for me. This is the first time I've had to adjudicate a case like this where I really have to sit down and try to parse out the terms in the policy.
Based on the statements I have read thus far there is zero doubt to me that the male student violated university policy, it's just Title IX cases are tough in this way.
The student is being accused of violating policies of sexual assault and sexual harassment, so you're spot on with this.
