Ken Starr's capacity to give Baylor a black eye and keep it black is undiminished.

Shortly after his arrival and before trouble erupted with the football team, Mr. Starr hired a consulting firm, Margolis Healy, that specializes in campus security to scrutinize Baylor's handling of sexual assaults, which were occurring at a disturbing rate. He said in an interview with The Texas Tribune that this report found the university was complying with Title IX. And he added that sexual assault was not "endemic" to the university.
But a copy of this still-confidential report reviewed by The New York Times contradicts Mr. Starr's claims. The often devastating text revealed that Baylor was not complying with the demands of Title IX, the code of the civil rights law that governs education.
The Margolis Healy consultants found Baylor officials had ignored federal regulations and heaped Title IX responsibilities on officials who already had full-time jobs. Deans and department chairs and counselors lacked required training in how to handle dating violence, and the report found a single "overwhelmed" investigator who could not "realistically" comply with federal law. The university's sexual misconduct policy did not define sexual consent and focused instead on the woman's behavior in igniting problems. [Here I would like to refer readers of this excerpt to the Burqa thread currently trending in this queue.] The Baylor and Waco police neglected to share information and "underreported sexual assaults."
Administrators, the report stated, resisted addressing "sex and alcohol in any way." The report found that Baylor had sidestepped scandal "based to a certain extent on luck."
