Tough luck for the guy.
I hope it is temporary.
Once she recovers from her trauma, I hope he is allowed to move around the campus freely.

This isn't anything to do with trauma, this is bullshit, I'm having a hard time believing this is actually real but then again I've gotten used to this kind of thing, if she even gets traumatised by a likeness of the rapist then she clearly still needs professional help.

I like how the author is a woman though and even she can't seem to believe what's happened lol.

exactly, pure bull*hit, and there is no chance that this is justified. The girl obviously need professional help, since its obvious that she has traumas related to her rape.
The dude however needs to hire a lawyer, and sue anyone who interferes with his freedom of movement, + additional lawsuit for the suffering that he went through.
Its insane that things like this are happening, but its 'murica in the end..

cheers

It is always "tough luck" when people are not in this guy's shoes. The woman needs the police to keep a record of all males resembling her rapist in every city so she can live her life fully without this sad and permanent micro aggression. The males should receive a text message 48 hrs in advance to minimize all potential tough unluckyness...

First Exclusion Ever

Rape is horrible, and should be punished to the fullest extent of the law. However ruining innocent mens lives over mere suspicion (or in this case even less than suspicion) is a travesty, and is an injustice in its own right. Does anyone else see the pattern of subjugation of the entire male gender revolving around this premise of punishing accused rapists, no matter what, including lack of any evidence? Since when has this country been in favor of treating people as guilty until proven innocent? This reeks of misandry and yet another attempt at subjugation of the entire male gender over the fear of an institution having to go head to head with the female supremacist movement operating under the guise of "feminism".

Yes — seriously.

A student at a liberal-arts school in Oregon was reportedly banned from going anywhere on campus that a fellow student would be — because he looked like the person who had raped her.

Professor Janet Halley wrote in a piece for Harvard Law Review that she had “recently assisted” a student who had been “ordered to stay away from a fellow student (cutting him off from his housing, his campus job, and educational opportunity) — all because he reminded her of the man who had raped her months before and thousands of miles away.

” The accused also had to endure a “month-long investigation into all his campus relationships, seeking information about his possible sexual misconduct in them,” which she called an “immense invasion of his and his friends’ privacy.”

And (believe it or not!) it gets worse. Even after this invasive investigation completely cleared him of any wrongdoing, he still wasn’t allowed to go anywhere where the student would be without risking punishment from the school.

“The stay-away order remained in place, and was so broadly drawn up that he was at constant risk of violating it and coming under discipline for that,” the piece continues.

According to Halley, the only way the accused student eventually learned of the source of the complaint against him at all was “by accident and off-hand.”

It’s devastating to think of a student being unable to walk around campus without having to risk being traumatized by reminders of her rape. But restricting a totally innocent student from walking around campus because he looks like the person who raped her is obviously unacceptable.

Halley’s article did not reveal the name of the school, the students involved, or the outcome of the situation.
