    This is not a "good thread" It's a thread that pretends they didn't fire a serial sexual harasser and then makes them CHAMPEENs of Title IX. They aren't. They are actively letting a faculty member go on the market who committed sexual misconduct with students.

    These Uni. rules are complicated, but it is important for faculty to be familiar with them (or know where to find resources) so that we can help students/postdocs faced with these issues, and help them maintain control over how/when cases are reported.

    There's also tricky issues that I wasnt full aware of before going to a women-in-science session discussing mental health. Eg. Uni. Mental health providers aren't mandatory reporters, receptionists/nurses are. Ie reveal no details in making appointments

    Good thread. Faculty & students knowing about mandatory reporting requirements is an important point. At we have anonymous helpline that students/faculty can call for advice on assault/harassement issues

    Fun bunch of press interviews with today. I really hope someone quotes his "I've watched a lot of Marvel movies, so I know that just leaving these decisions to us [scientists] is a bad idea" comment.
