Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

[Michael Domitrz <>]

Many sections from her "journal" are concerning - including discussing  
very dangerous and criminal situations as if it was all fun and  
games.  As this story is getting massive news coverage, you are likely  
to see more and more discussion.  Unfortunately, the "Today Show" had  
an expert who focused mainly on the "breach of privacy" of the males  
the female student mentioned in her PowerPoint Presentation and then  
brought up "girls are doing things nowadays we would have never done  
(paraphrase)."  Another "Today Show" segment focused on the "legal  
liability" of whether she can be sued.

The interviews never discussed that if she was blacked out, she could  
not give consent.  No where did they discuss sexual assault or that  
sex with someone who is blacked out (or potentially passed out) was  
even wrong, dangerous, and/or criminal.
