College Student Sexually Assaulted While Crowd Cheers - Jessica @ Feministing

This is one of the biggest reason why the culture of education we have in America is so fucked up right now. This group of men, who should all be charged with aiding and abetting the crime, are really nothing but overgrown boys with a sense of entitlement. And our education system perpetuates this by turning college into an extension of high school, except with fewer rules and punishments for the students. This girl did everything she was supposed to do and still was sexually assaulted and had her assailants cheered on. Of course these student will probably get nothing more than a slap on the wrist, thus negating the seriousness of their crime. And so our system of justice fails another woman, which reflects poorly on us all.
