HARRISBURG, Pa. (EYT) — Governor Tom Wolf released a statement last week that highlights his disagreements with the Trump Administration’s guidelines for campus safety, especially focusing on sexual assault.

In a statement issued by J.J. Abbott of the Governor’s Office, Wolf said, “The federal government may be turning its back on these survivor/victims, but Pennsylvania must continue to make progress.”

Wolf reminded legislators that he joined students and legislators to pass a series of bills that address campus safety. Among those bills were ones allowing amnesty for students who report assault, an online reporting option, creating comprehensive anti-violence guidelines, and giving schools a campus safety report card.

Opponents, such as Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, who was quoted in The New York Times discussing the matter back in 2017, feel that these laws do not allow for due process.

“The truth is that the system established by the prior administration has failed too many students,” the article quoted DeVos. “Survivors, victims of a lack of due process and campus administrators have all told me that the current approach does a disservice to everyone involved.”

The Times article also explained that the new rules would use a definition of sexual harassment that defined the term as “unwelcome conduct on the basis of sex that is so severe, pervasive and objectively offensive that it denies a person access to the school’s education program or activity.”

The main result of that, according to an article from NPR, is that schools can now “demand a higher standard of evidence,” pick which side from which they hear an appeal, and let investigations continue indefinitely.

Wolf said he feels that these rules were abandoning victims, especially at the height of the “Me Too Movement.”

“Given what’s at stake,” Wolf said in his statement, “it should be common sense to pass this legislation to make schools and campuses safer.”

DeVos and her supporters; however, maintain that the new guidelines allow schools to operate from the idea that the accused is innocent until proven guilty, instead of Obama Era guidelines which came from the assumption that an accusation means guilt.
