The Hunting Ground

Annie E. Clark and Andrea Pino Made a documentary called "The Hunting Ground" about rape on college campuses, and how some colleges choose to protect the college rather than the victims, they use title nine to help rape victims to get the education they deserve,”Not only is sexual assault an expected part of the college experience, the filmmakers assert, once it happens victims generally discover that no officials at their schools will take action or even care. These callous, indifferent administrators coddle perpetrators and systematically cover up heinous crimes in an effort to maintain their school’s good—if false—reputation. Occidental College assistant professor of sociology and activist Danielle Dirks says, “Schools are actively and aggressively not wanting to tell the truth about what is going on on their campuses.” (More on The Hunting Ground Here) By Emily Yoffe
