imo notifying a student in the evening after 7pm is indeed bad practice. counseling and psychological services is closed. the university says someone was available 24/7, but doesn't say who that person might be. i am skeptical.

Please, read things as they are written.  I'm assuming you read the article.  If not, please read the original (as best we have) source.

The article indicates the complaint says Meyer RECEIVED the "letter" (apparently, email) after 7PM.  You say "notifying a student after 7pm".  For all we know, Stanford could have notified her at 8AM or 6PM but she didn't read it until 7PM.   I would imagine that if the email wasn't sent until 7PM, the complaint would have pointed that out and the reporter would have used a more accurate description.

The university did not say only that "someone was available".  The university indicated "Meyer also was given a number to call for immediate support and was specifically told that this resource was available to her 24 hours a day, seven days a week."   That's a lot more specific than just than after the fact saying someone was available.   (It isn't clear to me whether that number was provided in the notification of a hearing, or in the response ("within the hour") to Meyer's response to that notice.)
