While Dean of Students at Georgia Tech, John Stein was accused of lack of due process by students who felt that they were falsely accused of rape and by fraternity members who felt that their case was improperly handled without sufficient evidence. [6] This eventually lead to a lawsuit by students that caught the attention of Georgia representative Earl Ehrhart who cut funding to the school as a result of the poor treatment of students. [7][8]The student was later reinstated by the Board of Regents [9][10]
