Bill could increase campus sexual assault regulations

Michigan senator 
co-sponsors federal 
effort to levy stricter 
penalties on colleges

By SAMANTHA WINTNER

Daily Staff Reporter

Last month, Sen. Gary Peters 

(D–Mich.), as part of a biparti-
san group of 10 other senators, 
introduced a new piece of leg-
islation that aims to strengthen 
efforts to prevent sexual assault 
on college campuses.

Sen. 
Peters 
joined 
Sena-

tors Claire McCaskill (D–Mo.), 
Dean Heller (R–Nev.), Richard 
Blumenthal (D–Conn.), Chuck 
Grassley (R–Iowa), Kirsten Gil-
librand (D–N.Y.), Kelly Ayotte 
(R–N.H.), Mark Warner (D–Va.), 
Marco Rubio (R–Fla.) and Shel-
ley Moore Capito (R–W.V.) in co-
sponsoring the Campus Safety 
and Accountability Act, which 
was introduced in the Senate on 
Feb. 26.

The current bill is a strength-

ened version of a Campus Safety 
and Accountability Act bill ini-
tially proposed last summer.

In a press release, Peters 

said the act aims to create real 
accountability for sexual assault 
crimes, and demand transpar-
ency from colleges and universi-
ties regarding the incidents that 
occur.

“As the father of two teen-

age daughters, I’m proud to join 
with my colleagues on a bipar-
tisan basis to tackle the serious 
problem of sexual assault on 
college campuses,” Peters said. 
“This bill is a major step towards 
creating an environment where 
all students can feel safe and 
secure while receiving a higher 
education by bringing more 
accountability and transparen-
cy to reporting sexual assault on 
campuses.”

Holly 
Rider-Milkovich, 

director of the University’s 
Sexual Assault Prevention and 
Awareness Center, said because 
the proposed legislation is in 
its early stages in the Senate, 

it’s still too early to determine 
whether University policies will 
comply with those outlined in 
the act or what impact it will 
have on campus.

However, she did point out 

that the bill is largely silent on 
the subject of prevention efforts, 
especially about the training of 
college stu-
dents, 
an 

area SAPAC 
has focused 
on.

“The 
bill 

has more of 
a focus on 
compliance 
matters and 
relation-
ships to law 
enforce-
ment, 
and 

other kinds 
of reporting 
responsibili-
ties,” Rider-
Milkovich 
said. “As it 
relates to the 
training of students, that is a 
place where the bill is less likely 
to impact SAPAC’s work.”

She noted that previously 

passed legislation, specifically 
the 2013 amendments to the 
Clery Act, provides guidance for 
universities in terms of staff and 
student training.

In contrast, the new bill is 

mainly focused on professional-
izing the response to and report-
ing of sexual assaults that occur 
on campuses, as well as protect-
ing the rights of the accused, 
modifying financial penalties 
and removing barriers for stu-
dents reporting assault.

In an e-mail interview, LSA 

senior 
Hannah 
Crisler, 
the 

campaign director for I Will, 
a student-led initiative to spur 
campus-wide 
conversation 

about sexual assault, highlight-
ed the bill’s efforts to provide 
resources and heighten aware-
ness for accused students.

“If the accused are continu-

ally attacked and blamed and 
left without education, without 
advising, and without an under-
standing of how their act was 

deemed wrong then they will 
never learn,” she wrote.

Under the act, universities 

would be required to standard-
ize their approach to student 
disciplinary 
hearings 
across 

campus. Athletic departments 
and other subgroups would be 
prohibited from handling com-

plaints 
inde-

pendently. 
Furthermore, 
the act man-
dates 
that 

schools notify 
both the vic-
tim 
and 
the 

accused with-
in 24 hours of 
any 
decision 

regarding the 
advancement 
of a disciplin-
ary 
measure. 

Such commu-
nication must 
inform 
both 

parties of the 
rights and due 
process 
pro-

tections they are entitled to.

In response to those parts of 

the legislation, Rider-Milkovich 
said she thought the University 
already uses fair policies in dis-
ciplinary hearings.

She also noted that the 

University’s 
Student 
Sexual 

Misconduct Policy applies uni-
formly to all students, irrespec-
tive of their status, affiliation or 
the school or college they belong 
to.

The 
legislation 
will 
also 

introduce enforceable Title IX 
penalties and stiffer penalties 
for Clery Act violations.

Institutions 
that 
do 
not 

comply with certain require-
ments of the Campus Safety and 
Accountability Act, Title IX and 
the Clery Act would be subject 
to penalties as high as 1 percent 
of their operating budget.

“Previously, the only allow-

able penalty was the loss of all 
federal student aid which is not 
practical and has never been 
done,” Peters said in a release.

The funds gathered by the 

U.S. Department of Education 

from these higher penalties 
would go to a new grant pro-
gram that would fund schools’ 
research for better methods of 
sexual assault prevention and 
crime response on their cam-
puses.

Rider-Milkovich 
applauded 

the inclusion of the fund, and 
said universities, researchers 
and legislators have not invest-
ed enough attention in address-
ing gaps in knowledge on these 
issues.

“Seeking to reinvest any fines 

into research on best practices 
was very encouraging, and I am 
grateful that Senator McCaskill 
heard so many of us from the 
field who were asking for that,” 
she said.

However, in regards to anoth-

er section of the bill focused on 
professionalizing 
responses, 

which would require minimum 
training standards for on-cam-
pus personnel and the appoint-
ment of “confidential advisors” 
to provide guidance for survi-
vors, Rider-Milkovich said she 
had some concerns.

Currently, she said, the act 

specifies that confidential advis-
ers cannot be undergraduate or 
graduate students, which could 
run contrary to a SAPAC gradu-
ate student internship program 
that trains students to engage 
with sexual assault prevention.

“I have concerns that this 

legislation 
might 
undermine 

or eliminate this professional 
training program at SAPAC and 
at other campuses across the 
country,” she said. “So even as 
the legislation requires there to 
be professional staff advocates, 
we need to have the ability to 
train those advocates to do the 
kind of work that’s required on 
campuses.”

The act also intends to sur-

vey students at every college 
and university in the country to 
assess sexual violence on college 
campuses. The results of these 
studies, which will be conduct-
ed biannually, will be released to 
inform prospective students.

Late last year, the University 

announced it would conduct its 
own survey on campus climate 

surrounding sexual assault.

Also, under the bill, schools 

will no longer be allowed to 
penalize students who violated 
other parts of student conduct 
code in nonviolent manner dur-
ing an incident. For example, 
students who, in reporting sex-
ual violence, admit to underage 
drinking cannot be prosecuted 
for that action.

Crisler said she thought that 

would be one of the more benefi-
cial parts of the bill.

“This addition to sexual vio-

lence policy is beneficial because 
students may feel more comfort-
able reporting an incident that 
included 
underage 
drinking, 

where as before they could have 
been scared of being reprimand-
ed,” she said. “Without that pen-
alty it also reinforces that sexual 
assault happens with or with-
out alcohol, and that survivors 
should not be punished.”

The act would also require 

institutions 
to 
enter 
into 

“memoranda 
of 
understand-

ing” between local and cam-
pus enforcement agencies that 
report to campus, meaning that 
the two will collaborate, sharing 
jurisdiction. This eliminates any 
time wasted debating jurisdic-
tion between the enforcement 
agencies.

Rider-Milkovich said agree-

ments with the Ann Arbor 
Police Department, the Washt-
enaw County Sheriff’s Depart-
ment and Pittsfield Township 
already exist.

Overall, both Rider-Milkov-

ich and Crisler said they think 
this legislation has a lot of 
potential.

“I was very pleased to see 

that the bill was created by 
a bipartisan group — it is so 
important that both Repub-
licans and Democrats could 
gather and create something 
as a team,” Crisler said. “The 
Campus Sexual Assault and 
Accountability Act has a lot 
of hope, and is going to be a 
large step in the right direction 
towards providing safety, edu-
cation, resources and hopefully 
prevention of sexual assault on 
college campuses.”

“
“

“As the father of 

two teenage daugh-

ters, I’m proud to join 

with my colleagues 

on a bipartisan basis 

to tackle the serious 

problem of sexual 

assault on college 

campuses.”
