Every nine minutes, a child in the US is sexually assaulted, according to the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network (RAINN).
On a rainy Friday afternoon, chants of No more emails! No more show! âBoys will be boysâ has got to go! rang out on the UA campus.
Around 50 UA students and community members gathered on the grassy hill in front of the John Tyson Center for Excellence in Poultry Science to stand in solidarity with survivors of sexual assault, before lining the street to face the Administration Building.
The protest came a day after confusion and outrage erupted online over a $20,000 settlement paid by the UofA to a former student. The student had accused the university of mishandling a 2017 sexual assault allegation against him after a Title IX panel found him responsible for the assault. It also followed an email sent Feb. 17 that ignited conversations on campus about victim blaming. The email suggested avoiding leaving doors unlocked, and practicing caution when out alone at night or after consuming alcohol. It did not mention consent.
