Considering sexual assault was committed by an employee (Smith) and ignored by another superior employee (Meyer) is a violation. It doesn’t matter that the victim is not a student or faculty.
I agree that should be true, but I don't know if it is. I've been doing some online research, and I'm finding otherwise. For example: Title IX Q&A and Doe v. Brown University: Non-Students and the Limits of Title IX Liability
I just want to be clear that Meyer is definitely morally wrong for keeping this guy on and not telling the university. I just don't know if the university can fire him for cause based on a bunch of technicalities. I agree with Law that Meyer lied to the media about this and that could be a fireable offense if the university wants to go that route, but even Butters got millions from UF after he lied to the media.
I want to point from your other post that I cannot think of anyone who was suspended and not fired. They probably are trying to get rid of him, while Meyer's lawyers are looking for technicalities and loopholes so Meyer can still get paid. I'm curious to see if Ohio St can and will fire him without any buyout.
