Brown and Cornell Universities Are Second Tier

BROWN AND CORNELL UNIVERSITIES ARE SECOND TIER

 I came across an interesting article last week.  "Brown and Cornell Are Second Tier" is the name of the article.  (See, The Chronicle of Higher Education, January 7, 2011)  The article is authored by Tom Bartlett.  

Bartlett describes how top firms focus on hiring only graduates from Harvard, Yale, and Princeton universities  In this environment, even Stanford University students and graduates get a "maybe" in the hiring process at top firms.  These leading firms view even business school students and graduates of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as not good candidates for hiring.  

Bartlett cites the research of Lauren Rivera in his article.  Rivera does an excellent analysis of documenting the hiring practices at top firms.  Harvard University stands at the top of the pyramid in hiring matters with leading employers.  Yale and Princeton also have some hiring success at elite firms. Graduates of Brown, Cornell, and other schools are burdened by what many consider the top-tier schools.    

In closing, some of the individuals attacking diversity efforts may be helped with steps taken to get a more diverse workforce.

MALES HAVE A TOUGH BURDEN IN SEXUAL ASSAULT CASES

A federal district court opined that there was no evidence that discrimination on the basis of gender was a motivating factor in a private university's decision to suspend a male student for sexual misconduct.  Thus, the male student could not maintain a Title IX claim against the university and eight of its employees.

The student did not allege that the university would have treated a female accused of sexual assault any differently, or that the university would have acted differently in a disciplinary procedure against a female accused of sexual assault.  

The case is Doe v. Western New England University, 2017 WL 113059. 

My personal view is that males have a tough burden in sexual assault cases.
