I’m listening to a good and important story on NPR’s “Morning Edition” just now, “Campus Rape Victims: A Struggle for Justice.” The audio part of the story won’t be available until later today, but the text is there now. I think it illustrates the problem of rape on college campuses, and it also mentions EMU in and the Dickinson murder:
The federal Department of Education regulates schools under the Clery Act. But it has fined offending schools just six times. Most fines have been small. The biggest — for $350,000 — came against Eastern Michigan University. Administrators there covered up the 2006 rape and murder of a student, 22-year-old Laura Dickinson, letting her parents think she’d died suddenly of natural causes.
Though that mention of EMU didn’t make the audio portion of the story….
