About the “Web” Unwelcome and Distorted Filtering of Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W Key Questions on Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972 - # Context and Perspective on Michael Ayele (a.k.a) W March 2015 - # Jeanne Ann Clery (November 23^rd 1966 – April 05^th 1986)

The Association for the Advancement of Civil Liberties (AACL) regrets to inform members of the general public and representatives of the media (who may follow its work) that unknown others were very much eager to assert control over the written content of Michael Ayele (a.k.a) W on various Internet Search Engines (ISE) such as AOL, Bing/MSN and Yahoo following his decision to publish on Open Science Framework (OSF) [1] how he was in the month of January 2010 informed what constitutes “affirmative and effective consent” in healthy sexual relationships after being told about the April 05^th 1986 rape and murder of Jeanne Ann Clery when he was an undergraduate student of Westminster College (Fulton, Missouri); [2] how he was on (or around) March 07^th 2022 informed by the Department of Justice (DOJ) Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) of an invitation that had been extended by Westminster College (Fulton, Missouri) to William Webster on (or around) August 29^th 1986: approximately 5 (five) months after the April 05^th 1986 rape and murder of Jeanne Ann Clery; [3] how he was on (or around) November 12^th 2020 informed by the DOJ (FBI) of their decision to re-assign the case of Jeanne Ann Clery rape and murder to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) on (or around) June 11^th 1992; [4] the postal mail letter sent to him by the CIA on (or around) May 21^st 2021 denying that they were ever transferred the case of Jeanne Ann Clery rape and murder by the FBI on (or around) June 11^th 1992; [5] the refusal of the DOJ (FBI) to deny that William Webster was Director of the FBI from 1978 to 1987; [6] the refusal of the CIA to deny that William Webster was Director of the CIA from 1987 to 1991; [7] his questions about Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972.

At the time Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W began to publish some of his written content on how he was (in the month of January 2010) informed what constitutes “affirmative and effective consent” in healthy sexual relationships after being told about the April 05^th 1986 rape and murder of Jeanne Ann Clery; Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W had not signed any binding agreement that subjected his written content on Open Science Framework (OSF) to evaluation, examination and unsolicited comments intended to “summarize” what the work is about. In other words, Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W has never agreed to take on the role of the “Student” for his published works on the OSF while the so-called “web” took on the role of “Professor.” Likewise, Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W has never agreed to take on the role of “Plaintiff” and/or “Defendant” for his published works on OSF while the so-called “web” took on the role of “Judge, Jury and Executioner.” Upon initiating contact with OSF about the filtering and distortion of his journal article with the Digital Object Identifier (DOI) 10.17605/OSF.IO/48M6Y, Michael Ayele (a.k.a) W was sorry to learn on (or around) January 08^th 2024 that OSF was incapable of preventing the filtering and distortion of journal articles published on the OSF platform on ISE such as AOL, Bing/MSN and Yahoo. Via email dated January 05^th 2024, Michael Ayele (a.k.a) W has informed OSF that the filtering and distortion of journal articles published on OSF encourages independent scholars/members of the general public/ representatives of the media/ non-profit organizations to engage in self-censorship for fear of having their written content deliberately misinterpreted on ISE such as AOL, Bing/MSN and Yahoo!

According to a January 30^th 2018 report published by the National Council on Disability (NCD), [1] “affirmative and effective consent” is being taught to college/university students of the United States of America (U.S.A) during the course of their Freshmen year, [2] college/university students are informed about “healthy sexual relationships” during the course of their 1^st (first) year of post-secondary academic education; [3] 20% (twenty percent) of women were sexually assaulted in a college/university setting by the time they reached their Senior year in Calendar Year 2005; [4] 32% (thirty two percent) of women with a disability were sexually assaulted during Calendar Years 2014 and 2015 in a college/university setting; [5] sexual assault “is a public health and public safety concern with far reaching implications;” [6] sexual assault is a “deeply personal violation,” which “leaves physical and emotional impacts that change the lives of victims;” [7] sexual assault causes “long term physical, psychological, and emotional effects, including depression, post-traumatic stress, thoughts of suicide, flashbacks, and sleep disorders.” The NCD have also noted in their January 30^th 2018 report that “Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972 is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in any education program or activity that receives federal funding. Under Title IX, discrimination on the basis of sex can include sexual harassment, rape and sexual assault. A college or university that receives federal funds may be held legally responsible when it knows about and ignores sexual harassment or assault in its programs or activities. As of September 22^nd 2017, colleges can adopt various standards of proof in sexual assault cases, from the lowest standard of proof (preponderance of evidence) to a higher standard of proof (clear and convincing evidence). Title IX, like the Clery Act, also requires college employers that address sexual assault to have proper training and to train the campus community in its policies and procedures regarding sexual assault.”

It is the judgment of Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W that the rape and murder of Jeanne Ann Clery continues to leave several key questions about Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972 unaddressed. The questions asked by Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W about Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972 include but are not limited to the following. 1) What are/were colleges/universities in the U.S.A obligations pursuant to Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972? Were colleges/universities throughout the U.S.A required by law to condemn violence committed against women irrespective of their racial backgrounds, their sexual orientations, their religious affiliations, their national origins and/or their disability status following the enactment of Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972? If yes, were colleges/universities required to inform their students (beginning Calendar Year 1973) what constitutes appropriate sexual boundaries pursuant to Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972? 2) Did colleges/universities throughout the U.S.A begin informing their students what constitute “affirmative and effective consent” in the years following the enactment of Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972? If not, when did colleges/universities begin to inform their incoming freshmen/transfer students about the concepts of “affirmative and effective consent?” Did colleges/universities throughout the U.S.A begin teaching the concepts of “affirmative and effective consent” to their incoming freshmen/transfer students following the rape and murder of Jeanne Ann Clery (dated April 05^th 1986)? If yes, why have colleges/universities throughout the U.S.A waited so long following the enactment of Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972 to inform their students what constitutes “affirmative and effective consent?” 3) Are colleges/universities discussions pertaining to what constitutes “affirmative and effective consent” consistent with Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972 if they are first informing their incoming/freshmen students about the rape and murder of Jeanne Ann Clery? Are colleges/universities discussions pertaining to what constitutes “affirmative and effective consent” consistent with their academic integrity policy if they are first informing their incoming freshmen/transfer students about the rape and murder of Jeanne Ann Clery? 4) Were there forces out there in the 1970s and the 1980s looking for a case where a Black/African American man rapes and murders a Caucasian woman for the purpose of enacting a law similar to the Jeanne Clery Act? Was the enactment of the Jeanne Clery Act the result of racist and sexist individuals coming together for the purpose of [a] preventing racial minorities from climbing the social ladder through academic education; [b] cracking down on interracial relationships particularly between a Caucasian woman and a Black/African American man (in American colleges/universities); [c] not applying the same standards in circumstances where a Caucasian man sexually assaults a woman from a racial minority (as in the case of Brock Turner and Chanel Miller following her rape on January 18^th 2015 at the campus of Stanford University)?
