Are Midwestern Campuses Turning A Blind Eye To Rape?
Last week, a Chicago Tribune article reported startlingly low arrest and conviction rates in cases of sexual assaults across a selection of six Illinois and Indiana universities and colleges. Sexual health advocates expressed frustration, but some local campuses continue to defend the way they handle sex crimes internally. “It’s the same thing, again and again,” one victim told the Tribune , which found that less than 10 percent of the reported sex crimes occurring since 2005 at the schools resulted in either an arrest or conviction Continue reading →
