BUT OF COURSE: Michigan State atoned for Nassar scandal by punishing male sexually assaulted by female.

A Michigan State University professor was found guilty of performing sexual acts on female students and athletes without their consent. He’ll spend the rest of his life in prison.

But when a sober female student performed sexual acts on an intoxicated male student without his consent, the scandal-plagued university blamed the victim, suspending him for two years, according to a lawsuit filed just before Christmas.

A former student alleges that Michigan State’s sexual-assault investigation of him was “tainted from the outset with gender bias” and violated his due process rights.

Brutalizing the powerless innocent while protecting powerful wrongdoers — it’s a bad look for higher education, but a surprisingly common one.
