Although most businesses have indeed set up initial training and policies to
address sexual harassment (during a spate of activity in the late 70's and
80's, there has been very little ongoing movement and we've seen sexual
harassment morph into different kinds of behaviors.  

In addition, on college campuses, there is much more behavior that is more
akin to street harassment than business style harassment.  Like with sexual
assault (and domestic violence and pornography and prostitution and other
forms of sexism and violence) to be effective, campuses need to initiate
sustained efforts, not just policy changes and one-time (or even annual)
trainings.
