In The American Prospect, at least.

I should point to Heather Mac Donald’s excellent report on the topic, and you can read some past PBC posts on it here — that all pretty much proves the nonexistence of the “crisis” underpinning the Prospect article.

But I wanted to mention a few passages that got to me. Here’s one:

At about this time every year, adult anxiety about sexual assault reaches a tipping point and gives way to an avalanche of advice to young women from campuses, commentators, and parents alike: Don’t hook up! Don’t dress provocatively! Watch your drink! Actually, don’t drink at all! Always stay with a friend! Don’t stay out too late! Don’t walk home alone! Etcetera, etcetera, ad nauseam.

Commentators and parents, sure. But what campus tells its female students to dress conservatively and control their sexual urges?

Also, what campus “[tells] girls to mind their liquor so they don’t ‘get themselves’ raped,” and what college doesn’t already “[teach] young men that alcohol is never an excuse to ‘get away’ with anything”?
