If there is no resistance nor opposition in any way and the person goes through with it, how should one know the person was/wasn't consenting? If the person freezes up, as in the first example but doesn't oppose anything, how would the guy know whether she's not consenting or is consenting but is very nervous?

It's also part of the law and your university obeys the law. In the third example, assuming the guy asked and she went along with it, he doesn't have any sure way of knowing she's doing it out of fear and isn't consenting.
