Collection: Middlebury Web Archives

Description: A statement, signed by 21 Middlebury students, supporting Elizabeth Dunn. The writers and signatories argue that Dunn's actions, while controversial, should be understood as motivated by "care and respect" for the community they live in. The authors argue that Dunn's resort to extrajudicial methods is evidence of the inadequacy of those methods to support survivors of sexual assault. They suggest that a restorative justice approach is the only ethical and effective way to respond to the situation.

Title: Middlebury: Where White Supremacists, but Not Survivors, Are Worthy of Free Speech

URL: https://middleburycampus.com/37484/opinion/middlebury-where-white-supremacists-but-not-survivors-are-worthy-of-free-speech/

Collection: Middlebury Web Archives

Description: This editorial by the current and former leadership of 'It Happens Here' expresses solidarity with Elizabeth Dunn, and criticizes what they see as a double standard between the administration's view of Dunn's free speech (and the speech of student activists during the Charles Murray protests) vs. Murray's own free speech, and other examples of what the authors take to be oppressive speech in academic contexts. They argue that Middlebury's administrators defend free speech where it does not threaten those in positions of privilege, but are willing to punish such speech when it does threaten existing power structures.

URL: https://reason.com/blog/2018/02/01/middlebury-activist-who-published-list-o/

Collection: Middlebury Web Archives

Description: An article published for a national news audience, describing Elizabeth Dunn's 'list of men to avoid' and speculating on the disciplinary measures that Dunn might face for publishing it. It discusses the possibility that Dunn's actions themselves may have violated the rules of Title IX, by circumventing the official channels for assault allegations and creating a 'hostile environment' for those named on the list. The author criticizes such a broad construal of the hostile environment criterion, arguing that it seems to dampen Dunn's right to free speech. However, he evinces skepticism of the allegations on the whole.

Collection: Middlebury Web Archives

Description: "Middlebury Unmasked is a survivor-created, survivor-led activist collective at Middlebury College. Our goal is simple: to tell the very stories that campus policy has forbidden many of us to discuss. We invite others to hear our stories and think critically about how Title IX functions in practice, even within schools which are compliant with Title IX. The symbolism behind the masks used in this project cannot be understated; while Middlebury is a site of great trauma and institutional violence, our peers can also stand alongside us in solidarity and support. Both claimants and respondents have rights which we must critically examine."
