The Wallabies are adamant there will be no repeat of the infamous Dublin Six debacle, with lock Kane Douglas describing it as a line-in-the-sand moment for Australian rugby.In 2013, six Wallabies were suspended for one match - and a further nine, including Douglas and current tour members Bernard Foley, Nick Phipps and Scott Fardy, were given either verbal or written warnings - following a late-night drinking session in Dublin.And Douglas - who went home early enough that night so as to avoid a suspension but not a written warning - said it was an important moment in shaping the current culture within the Wallabies.And with an unbeaten spring tour record after three games, and Ireland and England standing in the way of a first grand slam of wins since 1984, the Wallabies say they wont be tempted by Dublins nightspots this week.I was out that night. I suppose things had to change within the Wallabies culture and I think weve become more professional since then and (going out for drinks is) probably not even going to happen, said Douglas.The late-night drinking prompted an angry rebuke from then coach Ewen McKenzie, but the Wallabies went on to win their final two matches of the tour.A furious McKenzie said at the time he wasnt running social tours of Europe.Similarly, last week, Wallabies coach Michael Cheika warned his players of the temptations of Paris - a city he admires greatly, but where he is acutely aware of the pitfalls of becoming a tourist and forgetting the task at hand.We havent got any rules with Cheik - were all adults, but I dont think something like that would happen again anyway, added Douglas, now a 29-Test veteran who has matured into a leader among the Wallabies.Its been good from the leadership group. I feel like Im getting pretty old now anyway.Im 27, Ive got a wife and kids and everyone just wants to be in the right position come Saturday that we can play our best footy.I think the Wallaby culture and a heap of the boys have grown a lot since then.Judging by vice-captain Michael Hoopers steely gaze when quizzed on the topic, the team leaders intend to ensure everyone falls in line in both Dublin this week and in London, where the Wallabies will face England the following weekend in their final match of the tour.I dont think its something that comes into our minds, said Hooper, who was not among those sanctioned three years ago and started in all five Tests on that tour.Theres obviously memories of (the 2013 controversy) but thats all well behind us now and its about looking forward.

Luke Harrison spoiled Garrett Hughsons shutout bid with a power-play goal at 13:17 of the third period. The Spokane goaltender finished with 28 saves, including a Brandon Fushimi penalty shot in the second period that would have tied the game 1-1.

AUSTIN, Texas -- The sexual assault scandal that took down Baylor Universitys president and revered football coach also found a problem with a bedrock of the schools faith-based education: a student conduct code banning alcohol, drugs and premarital sex that may have driven some victims into silence.Investigators with the Pepper Hamilton law firm who dug into Baylors response to sexual assault claims determined the schools rigid approach to drugs, alcohol and sex and perceived judgmental responses to victims who reported being raped created barriers to reporting assaults. Some women faced the prospect of their family being notified.A number of victims were told that if they made a report of rape, their parents would be informed of the details of where they were and what they were doing, said Chad Dunn, a Houston attorney who represents six women who have sued Baylor under the anonymous identification of Jane Doe.The nations largest Baptist university is a notably conservative place in one of the most conservative states in the country. Dancing on campus was banned until 1996. Fornication, adultery and homosexual acts were included in an official list of misconduct until May 2015, and the current policy stresses that physical sexual intimacy is to be expressed in the context of marital fidelity.Students can still be expelled for using drugs or alcohol, though late last year it included amnesty for minor offenses. Pepper Hamilton investigators urged the school to expand amnesty to sexual conduct code violations; the federal government told all U.S. universities in 2011 that conduct policies may have a chilling effect on reporting sexual assault.Amnesty is a no-brainer, said Shan Wu, a former federal sex crimes prosecutor who is now a criminal defense attorney specializing in student legal issues. Unfortunately, these codes force students to engage in life-or-death calculations, added Wu, who isnt involved in the Baylor case.Baylor officials say they are already making changes. Interim President David Garland, who took over in late May for ousted president and chancellor Ken Starr, said the university considered all of the firms recommendations as mandates.Expectations for our students are outlined in university conduct policies and are a reflection of our faith-based mission, school spokeswoman Tonya Lewis said, noting that the amnesty provisions for drug and alcohol use should assure sexual assault victims that Baylor will focus on their allegations. Baylor has repeatedly declined to comment specific cases.Student safety andd support for survivors of all types of interpersonal violence are paramount to the mission of Baylor University, Lewis said.ddddddddddddBut such offers of amnesty are too late for women who previously reported assaults and told Pepper Hamilton investigators about hurdles they faced in dealing with Baylor officials. Eight former Baylor students have brought three federal lawsuits against the school, outlining rape allegations as far back as 2005 that they say were either ignored or discouraged from reporting.Dunn would not allow his clients to be interviewed by the AP to protect their identity, but relayed questions to them.Two women said they were pushed to accept alcohol conduct violations when they reported their assaults, or feared sexual conduct violations if they did.One woman said her case began when she called police to report a physical assault on another woman at an off-campus party. Police demanded to know if she was underage and had been drinking, then arrested and reported her to the school office that investigates conduct code violations, she said. She told Baylor officials her drinking was a result of being raped a month earlier and detailed what happened in person and in a letter.She received an alcohol code violation and told to do 25 hours community service, and when she tried to appeal, the woman said Baylor officials urged her to drop it. The school never pursued her rape claim.I was told by many Baylor staff that they couldnt do anything for me because my assault was off campus, yet they had no problem punishing me for my off-campus drinking, the woman said. Schools are bound by federal law to investigate on- and off-campus sex assault allegations.The threat of a sexual conduct violation was a common issue that Baylor did nothing to dispel, another woman said.Even when the code of conduct wasnt an overt issue, some women who reported sexual assault said they were grilled about their behavior.Stephanie Mundhenk, a former Baylor student who The Associated Press is identifying because she has publicly blogged about Baylors investigation into her 2015 rape allegations, told the AP that she was never threatened by conduct code violations but was repeatedly questioned about her sexual history.I was alarmed, said Mundhenk, who is not among those suing Baylor. It was biased and it was unfair. They were trying to gauge if I was a loose woman. They were looking to attack my reputation.
