This is from a government sexual assault survey that can be found at Press Release | News Releases | Media Center | U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill of Missouri.
The exact quote from the report is
“More than 20% of the nation’s largest private institutions conducted fewer investigations than the number of incidents they reported to the Department of Education, with some institutions reporting as many as seven times more incidents of sexual violence than they have investigated…”
Sexual violence, on campus, or anywhere, is not a topic that I have any experience with, or expertise in. Thus, I don’t think I should comment on it directly – other than to state how horrendous I think it is.
I do have views though about how today’s universities operate, and about a lot of the people that operate them.
I don’t think a lack of investigations of accusations of violent criminal behavior is an accident. A school that reports incidents is certainly aware that they are occurring. Not investigating sounds highly suspicous to me. (Or, pretending to investigate or, intimidate, not investigate.) It sounds exactly liike the kind of cover up that institutions that have sold their soul would do. (See Hutcins qoute about “souls“.)
(I have been on a trip. Fly fishing and concerts at Interlochen (Nickel Creek, Jackson Browne, Joshua Bell, Allison Kraus and Willie Nelson) have slowed me down on my blogging. I think I’m back now.)
