Obama Touts “Progress” in Fight Against Campus Sexual Assault


Obama Touts “Progress” in Fight Against Campus Sexual Assault

President Obama gives a great speech about how the answer to sexual assault on university campuses is a change in culture. "How much do we value the lives and dignity of our wives, daughters, and sons?" asked the President. 

He mentions the wave of student-led activism. But there is no mention of administration-led or faculty-led activism. Why not...?

Sexual harassment can have the same damaging effects of sexual assault. Sexual harassment is a problem for undergraduate and graduate students. 

Let's think about this. What makes, participates in, and perpetuates culture? People do, meaning a person is the fundamental unit of change or lack thereof. That's me. That's you.
