A new poll of parents with college aged children shows one in three or 34 percent fear for their childs safety at college,
the highest point in years. Parents are not confident that colleges are doing enough to protect their children, and are taking
measures into their own hands. 1 in 5 women is sexually assaulted in college, no one in america is more at risk of being raped
or assaulted than college women. The campus sexual assault epidemic is even worse for LGBT Students.
Everyone regardless of gender, race, or sexual preferences should feel safe.
Sexual assault of college students remains a topic of considerable concern across the nation’s campuses, particularly when it comes to how colleges handle sexual assault cases. According to the data above, sexual offenses are the second highest crime on college campuses, just behind burglaries. One in five students experience some form of sexual assault while attending college, according an April 2014 report by The White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault. Another recent study found that less than one-third of students found responsible for sexual assault are expelled from college. But what exactly is considered “sexual assault” and what does one do if he or she becomes a victim of it?
Many universities still aren't doing nearly enough to protect their students in a place they should feel the safest.
Students found guilty of sexual assault by their universities can rest assured there’s a good chance they won’t be kicked out of school. If they want someone to thank, they might send their praise to the Association for Student Conduct Administration for telling universities across the nation not to be “punitive” when handling campus rape.
Intense focus on sexual assault by college activists, members of Congress and the Obama administration was a catalyst this year to prompt multiple pieces of federal legislation and a White House task force to address how universities deal with campus rape.
But who should be punishing students found guilty of sex assault, and how they should be punished, remains a grey area.
Since lawmakers haven’t stepped up to offer definitive guidance, trade groups and consultants have filled the void. The result: Not even a third of college students found guilty of sexual assault are kicked out of school, according to a new Huffington Post analysis.
Students found responsible for sexual assault were expelled in 30 percent of cases and suspended in 47 percent of cases, according to The Huffington Post’s review of data collected from nearly three dozen colleges and universities. At least 17 percent of students received educational sanctions, while 13 percent were placed on probation, sometimes in addition to other punishments.
