Most of America's criminal justice system holds the defendent as, "Innocent until proven guility." Not the other way around.

I don't really know about Amherst but I find that very strange. In this case, it seems like the girl is the rapist and not the man since he was unconious and could not consent to having sex in any way.

Hopefully he is able to get due process.

Amherst is a college... A private one at that(meaning that because they don't receive public funding, they don't have to abide by the same exact rules as public institutions do.

I really fail to see what this has to do with the Country as a whole. A private institution makes their own rules, and the student agreed to abide by them upon attending.

Not saying what happened to him is fair but still this has hardly anything to do with the legal system as a whole and more to do with the faulty policies of a college.

Well even if it was a public university they handle cases within the school, colleges are being equipped to handle anything that happens on there premises. The overall outcome depends on what the school board passes down. Usually they expel the student and apply the charges to his or her permanent record so it would be hard for them to get approved for another university, but if the charges are  heinous I'm sure if goes to a different system. 

 

Usually it goes like this, any organization receiving public funding they usually have to abide by federal minimum standard and the law of the land, if an organization is privately funded they can usually manipulate their way out of certain situations, but don't get me wrong they are not allowed to run over the law.  Usually private universities keep all their situations private to preserve the way the school is perceived. No one wants to send there child to a school that has reports of teachers touching students for instance!
