Sexual Assaults on College Campuses: Victims Seeking Justice

http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2010/12/08/131887810/administration-congress-take-steps-to-address-sexual-assaults-on-campus

Kudos to the Obama and administration and congress for addressing this long neglected problem. The problem of sexual assault on college campuses is far more prevalent than anyone would like to admit.  Universities' response to allegations of sexual assault have been inadequate at best, leaving the problem to fester (and perpetrators free to assault again). Victims and their families are doubly scarred: first by the assault itself, and secondly by a system that still blames the victim.

Please let your legislators know that you support this legislation to support college students' safey on campus.
