Sexual Assault on Campus: A Frustrating Search for Justice

Sexual assaults on campus have been a subject of great concern for decades, and this thoughtful website from the Center for Public Integrity provides insight into this troubling phenomenon. The investigative work for this project was done by Kristen Lombardi and Kristin Jones who began their work by surveying crisis service programs and clinics on or near college campuses across the country. They followed up on this work by interviewing nearly 50 current and former college students who say they were raped or sexually assaulted by other students and other members of their respective academic communities. After all of this work, the reporters and the Center teamed up with a number of partners to create the series featured on this website. Here visitors can make their way through sections that include "Articles," "Resources," and "Related Stories." Many of the articles are accompanied by radio features from their partners at National Public Radio and the "Resources" area contains a reporter's toolkit for journalists. Additionally, there is the helpful resource "Understanding the Law," which talks about the three key laws which effect how sexual assault claims are handled on campuses across the country.
