1 of 5 college women will be sexually assaulted...

So as you know, I attend UMCP. Most  students know that on a campus like ours, it's not too smart to take your safety for advantage. Paul Dillon, the campus police spokesperson, floods our emails several times a week notifying us of the robberies, assaults, and sex offenses happening on and around our campus. But apparently... it's not just us.

The U.S. Department of Justice reports that about 1 of 5 college women will be sexually assaulted. The investigative unit of NPR collaborated with the Center for Public Integrity (CPI) to see where school systems and governmental agencies are going wrong in solving these problems.

Laura Dunn (left, picture courtesy of : NPR.org), a student of the University of Wisconsin at the time, said nothing about what happened to her in April 2004. According to the report, after drinking too much at a fraternity party, Laura was taken advantage by two men who she knew and trusted.
