It involved one of their players. They have a responsibility to investigate. That is why FSU is currently under investigation. Where it happened is irrelevant.


Id say considering it took them a year to do anything about this, the ruling by this investigation team will not be good.

<p style="background-color:transparent;margin:0px 0px .5em 1.5em;">"In the case examined by The Times involving Jameis Winston, no university official outside the Victim Advocate Program received a report from any complainant naming Winston prior to when the allegations were made public in November 2013."

<p style="background-color:transparent;margin:0px 0px .5em 1.5em;"> 

<p style="background-color:transparent;margin:0px 0px .5em 1.5em;">What does that mean? It means the accuser never filed a complaint against Winston with FSU. In order for Title IX responsibilities to kick in, an official with a high enough position at the university to be considered a decision maker has to be made aware that there is an allegation of sexual harassment or assault that was made by a student against a student/teacher/employee. So when the officials in the athletic department were made aware that Winston had been named a suspect, if they were not informed that the alleged victim was a student, they would not have responsibilities under Title IX.

<p style="background-color:transparent;margin:0px 0px .5em 1.5em;">But again, I'm sure they did their best to sweep it under the rug.
