re: Article on Rape at UVA

We've all seen it here. The accuser immediately gets blamed. Then, on top of that, we've seen how many sexual assault cases get ignored by the police. It all gives you a much greater understanding of why someone may not come forward after a rape.

True, but it's much easier to enforce public accountability with a police department, an organization under whose very purview this should fall, than it is with a university administration. If something is wrong with a system or process, I'd much rather the target be a police and judicial system rather than a university system operating fuzzily outside the purview of the law.
