A few thoughts. I was trained last year as a Title IX investigator for my institution. First, once the complaint was filed with the Title IX office at UF, it was out of the hands of Stricklin, so he couldn't investigate, discipline, or comment on the complaint. Title IX complaints are investigated at the institutional, not departmental, level. If Stricklin got involved it would have created a pretty strong conflict of interest. Second, one of the quirks of Title IX is that it only applies to activities that happen on campus or at campus events. So, if he was stalking students off campus, it is weird and creepy, but does not fall under Title IX -- depending on the complaint (which seems to have disappeared from the internet). It is possible that it was dismissed because it didn't fall under the rules. Third, a complaint that was filed on September 27 probably hasn't been investigated and adjudicated yet, especially at a place as large as UF. The investigation would probably take several weeks and then they'd have to schedule a hearing. It is possible, I suppose, to have the whole thing done in six weeks, but that would seem to be pretty fast. Or, they could have investigated and found that it wasn't true, so no hearing. But the whole thing goes into a confidential Title IX black box, so who knows. But having an attorney on your side is a good step for Golden.
