Suspended pending a hearing
Michigan State football coach Mel Tucker is facing a hearing next month over allegations that he sexually harassed activist and rape survivor Brenda Tracy during a phone call last year, according to USA Today.
Michigan State hired an outside Title IX attorney to investigate the complaint and the investigation concluded in July, according to the report published Sunday.
A hearing is scheduled for Oct. 5-6 to determine if Tucker violated the school’s sexual harassment and exploitation policy, USA Today reported.
My observation is that while there is a lot of the normal ribbing and agitation between school partisans here, most have the ability to discern the difference between that and when something that actually matters is going on.
Maybe. But the investigation was completed in July. Why wasn't Mel suspended then? Get ahead of the story and control the narrative. It wasn't until the story broke yesterday that they took action.Robert Faygo wrote: ↑Sun Sep 10, 2023 4:25 pmMy observation is that while there is a lot of the normal ribbing and agitation between school partisans here, most have the ability to discern the difference between that and when something that actually matters is going on.
Title IX stuff, especially when it comes to protecting the privacy of those that file claims, is serious business dealing with the feds. When the dust settles, I'm betting you'll see that MSU did things the right way to protect Tracy's right to privacy and then take swift action when she herself revealed the details. At any rate, I guarantee that MSU's lawyers were on this from the day she filed her complaint and they were the ones dictating the university's response.
I'm genuinely curious about what has been going on there in general. You have an interim president that took the unusual step of moving into the on campus president's house who recently announced she didn't want the permanent job, and you have Trustees who seemingly can't get their shit together. Who is running the show there?Honeyman wrote: ↑Sun Sep 10, 2023 4:34 pmMaybe. But the investigation was completed in July. Why wasn't Mel suspended then?

Since this is a veiled shot at me, I will say that it's pathetic that a Trump ballwasher can't comprehend that politics don't dictate opinions in every facet of everyday life.
