While some of what you state regarding the prior Title IX case against Allegheny and Hammer is accurate, it is patently incorrect to say that the college and Hammer were exonerated completely. A simple review of the pleadings in that case show that they were not in fact completely exonerated as the Plaintiff survived summary judgment at least in the claims of retaliation. My understanding is that retaliation claims are distinct civil rights violations, so the federal judge there saw that there were enough facts to substantiate a retaliation claim.

Lumbercat - shame on you for bringing up this matter.  Unfortunately, a female kicker at Allegheny got reported to her parents for some untoward behavior and cooked up a false Title IX complaint to avoid punishment.  An Assistant Coach reported the matter to Head Coach Hammer who immediately reported the matter to the school administration. The kicker's family engaged an attorney.  The investigation turned up the true facts of the matter.  Coach Hammer and the College were completely exonerated in the matter.  Having already moved to Bowdoin, he disclosed the matter fully and Bowdoin recognized his complete exoneration. 
Clearly you have issues with Bowdoin about the departure of Coach Wells. It is abjectly unfair of you to repeat falsehoods and abject lies about the matter at Allegheny.
