In Wednesday’s letter, the National Organization for Women said Eramo’s effort is going too far.

“Your dean’s demands recite nearly every false argument made to undermine victims of sexual assault,” the letter reads. “It is exactly this kind of victim blaming and shaming that fosters rape culture, re-victimizes those brave enough to have come forward, and silences countless other victims.”

The letter states that by implicating Jackie in the lawsuit, Eramo has “publicly attacked” a victim whom she formerly counseled and that doing so could damage the ability of students to trust university officials tasked with protecting them. Further, the letter indicts the university for condoning Eramo’s actions and demands that it take steps to “put a stop to these actions, make clear that the university does not support them and to continue to foster a more positive environment where all students can feel safe and protected.”

A spokesman for the university said Friday that Sullivan declined to comment on the matter.

When reached Friday, one of Eramo’s attorneys said it was “unfortunate” that “Jackie and her cadre of lawyers have taken the unreasonable and legally untenable position that she is immune from routine civil discovery.”
