New York is on track to become the second state to require that colleges notate on transcripts when students are found responsible for sexual assault.If you are a male : do you really want to go to college in New York ?
The Empire State would join Virginia, which enacted a similar law in May requiring that certain sexual violence violations be noted on students' transcripts.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) and leadership in the state legislature announced this week agreement on a package of campus sexual assault legislation known as "Enough Is Enough." The bill passed both the New York Senate and the state Assembly on Wednesday.
If the legislation is enacted, New York would also become the second state to require that colleges use an "affirmative consent" standard in judging sexual assault -- essentially replacing "no means no" with "only yes means yes" as the benchmark for determining whether sex is consensual. Several other states are considering their own affirmative consent proposals.
