Take back the date night: An examination of universities' online information on date and acquaintance rape
2016
Overview
For the last thirty years, researchers have attempted to make sense of the problematic nature of crime on college campuses, while legislators use the benefits of the legislator to implement laws that require universities to address these problems. However, there still exists a problem of crime on college campuses, specifically sexual assault. The largest sub-category of sexual assault on college campuses comes from those who are victimized by persons that they know. Because of this frequency of an individual being sexually assaulted by a friend, someone they are/were dating, or an acquaintance, it is vital that students are able to be informed about date and acquaintance rape and sexual assault. This study diagnoses the availability of information on 424 college campuses within the United States. What is found throughout this research is that less than half of all universities in the sample make some form of information available on their webpage addressing date or acquaintance rape and sexual assault. While this is alarming, there are policy implications and future research that can continue to make information less of a trend and reverse course to make students more knowledgeable about date and acquaintance rape and sexual assault.
