Mid-September of my first year in 2014, I attended a rally against gender-based violence. It was only a couple of days after Hannah Graham went missing, and I counted fewer than 10 people in attendance. When I attended the Take Back The Night Vigil in April, there were over a hundred people present. In order to combat sexual violence, our community needs to respond with this level of activism.

2: The number of women in the list of top 20 earners employed by the University in the 2015-16 academic year
The Cavalier Daily takes a look back over the past academic year.
This year, the University community felt much grief at the loss of eight students — Margaret Lowe, Kurt Hilburger, Paul Kim, John Paul Popovich, Ceili Leahy, Quentin Alcorn, Derek Sousa and Juliana Porter. Even though these students have died, their memory and legacy lives on in the University community.

In April 2015, the University’s Response Working Group issued a report to the President’s Ad Hoc Group on University Climate and Culture with recommendations on how the University can better respond to sexual violence and support victims and survivors.
The live panel talked about reporting on sexual assault and violence.
University President Teresa Sullivan created the President’s Ad Hoc Group on University Climate and Culture in December 2014 to address and explore policies, practices and structures surrounding the issues of student safety on Grounds. The Group had three Working Groups — the Prevention Working Group, Response Working Group and Culture Working Group — to specifically address different components of these topics.
On the evening of April 18, various transphobic and racist remarks were spotted scrawled in chalk around Grounds. Many of the students who stumbled across the statements sought to scuff them out or erase them, only to see them rewritten during the course of the night. One of these statements even read, “Confused about your gender? Look down your pants.” Another message explained the wealth gap “through alleged average IQ differences between white and black people.” The racist notion that there are inherent intelligence disparities between ethnicities was originally introduced by Arthur Jensen, “the father of modern academic racism,” who wrote an article in 1969 titled “How Much Can We Boost I.Q. and Scholastic Achievement?” In the article, he claimed that a nebulous “g” or genetic factor explained the differences in scholastic achievement between white and black students. Jensen was heavily bankrolled by — in the words of the Southern Poverty Law Center — the “racist radical right,” or RRR, and his writings were used as arguments against integration.
The University has implemented several of the three working groups’ recommendations, such as making information about sexual assault policy at the University more accessible.
“ProPublica Live: An Examination of Reporting on Rape,” a discussion addressing the intersection of journalism and sexual assault, will be held Thursday, April 28 at the University.
