One in five women in college are sexually assaulted, yet only a fraction of these crimes are reported, and even fewer result in punishment for the perpetrators (The Hunting Ground). Women are forced to silence themselves and swallow their voices to come forward and speak about the trauma that they have to endure out of fear of being falsely accused of lying. Society looks at rape as always being the 'women's fault' and refuse to look at the other side of the picture. By signing this petition, more awareness can be brought to this ongoing issue and women without voices can be heard.

The volume of support has moved this issue into a position where the administration can no longer ignore our requests for a formal review. I am currently drafting a letter to the Board of Trustees to demand an immediate meeting regarding current reporting protocols.

this is so true. my roommate went through this and the school basically told her to just move out. horrible how they protect the guys instead of the victims.
