In addition,
"About
a month later, on June 8,
2015,
President
Hurley
wrote
to the
president of
the Feminist Majority Foundation addressing
the OCR complaint.
He
promptly
distributed
copies
of
his
responsive
letter
to the UMW community and several media
outlets. According to the
Complaint, Hurley’s letter
falsely
asserted that the OCR
complaint
drew a
connection
between
Grace
Mann’s
death
and the threatening social
media posts. Hurley also inaccurately claimed
that neither UMW nor its
campus police
had
received
any
reports of Yik Yak
threats
directed at
Feminists United members.
Additionally,
Hurley suggested that the safety concerns of Feminists United members
were exaggerated
because some of the online
threats
simply derived from “pop culture.”"
