W.F. PRICE: The Murky World of Sex on Campus.

The LA Times published a correction yesterday to an article published late last year. In the article, which appeared on the front page, the LA Times reported that Occidental College did not disclose a number of sexual assault reports. . . .

So why weren’t these incidents disclosed? Because they were apparently not crimes, but rather accusations of sexual harassment, or they occurred some distance from the school. . . .

It turns out that alleging rape can result in a payout from the school. Media attention in these cases then becomes leverage for complainants in civil suits.
