...Sexual violence is a major social and public health problem on many college campuses across the United States and many other countries. Sexual violence encompasses many different aspects of sexual deviancy but sexual violence is typically considered to be sexual assault or rape. Sexual assault and rape have affected men and women alike. However, the vast majority of sexual violence victims are women with men being the perpetrators.

Rape is defined as penetration or attempted penetration of sexual organs, but sexual assault is a much broader term. Sexual assault includes; completed or attempted penetration, abusive sexual contact without...

...Raise the Bar In the article, “The Coddling of the American Mind,” Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt state that the use of trigger warnings on college campuses are having unintended consequences. A trigger warning is used by a professor to notify students when they are about to discuss material that has the potential to be upsetting or offensive. Lukianoff and Haidt believe that these trigger warnings have been put in place to appease the student’s demands for a safe space where they can learn. The article opens by stating. “a movement is arising, undirected, and driven largely by students, to scrub campuses clean of words, ideas, and subjects that may cause discomfort or give offense.” The authors argue that this movement stems from a generation that feels entitled to the right to not be offended. This has led to a social environment where professors and students alike feel fearful to speak their mind freely. The trigger warnings these professors are using exasperate the current atmosphere of extreme political correctness. In the view of Lukianoff and Haidt, these trigger warnings are gasoline on the fire. Their claim is that the warnings lead to unforeseen consequences. The warnings lead to the censorship of controversial or challenging ideas. Due to this fact, this generation of students are graduating college ill prepared for the real world. To even further their claim, Lukianoff and Haidt state that trigger warnings lead to increased anxiety and mental illness...

...that excuses or tolerates sexual violence. This is widely seen on college campuses across the United States of America. Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is a federal civil rights law that proscribes discrimination on the substratum of sex, which can includes sexual harassment, rape, and sexual assault in any educational program or activity that receives federal funding (ACLU, 2015). However this public policy is inconsistent in some ways. In order to make it more...

...portrays women as sexual objects, or entities, specifically when they are required to bring sexual pleasure to their male counterparts through the way they look or act. Such media, therefore, is implying that women’s sole purpose is to bring men sexual gratification (Wright and Tokunaga 956). This increases the sexual objectification of women, specifically in magazines, television, and social media platforms, demonstrating...

...Term Paper on Hate Speech on College Campuses Introduction As colleges struggle to handle the various differences their students and faculty embody, the problem of “hate speech” has become a focal point of educational erudition and policy-making. In the most deliberate and alarming cases, hate speech is projected to degrade or disgrace those at whom it is directed, usually colored people, gays, lesbians, the physically or mentally challenged, and women, regardless of their sexual orientation, race, religion or ability. Less disturbing examples include insensitive or careless comments, jokes, and other expressions that are painful to those to whom they are directed, regardless of the intent of the person by whom they are spoken or written. The main focus of this essay is to discuss the current dominant structure within which the matter of hate speech is being debated. This structure draws heavily on the discussion of the Fourteenth and the First Amendments, which in my opinion are not adequate to the issue of hate speech. There is a pressing need for extra-legal standards for communicative interaction to handle this sensitive issue. Main Body In our society various laws have been invoked to regulate an increasingly extensive range of social communications. The very language with which we percept and talk about our needs, desires and disagreements is often highly legalistic (Glendon 1991). When reacting to someone else’s hurting experience, one may lament that there should...

...Hate speech is nothing new to American universities. It is defined as language that slanders a particular group based on race, color, gender, nationality, as well as other characteristics. Though colleges try to combat hate speech with speech codes, these codes are never upheld in court, and as a result the victims are left to suffer. Sadly, most victims are minorities who have been historically oppressed, such as African Americans and women. In order to help the minorities targeted by hate speech on college campuses, the sufferers must be empowered to speak out through the creation of a national organization and eventually the Supreme Court must rule that the freedom of speech does not include hate speech. An increase of hate speech on college...

...Chapter one 1.0 Introduction Just a casual look at Nigerian universities these days will suffice to realise that so many social vices have become the order of the day. Chief among these are the twin evils of cultism and indecent dressing. Interestingly, these vices are commoner among the males and females respectively. What probably began as pacification to desires for companionship, protection and security; an innocent imitation of westerners has grown to bedevil sanity and progress on our university today. In this paper, cultism, indecent dressing and some other related social vices will be dealt with in light of their causes, consequences and possible remedial steps. 1.1 Definition of Basic Terms * Social vices * Cultism * Secret cult * Secret societies * Indecent dressing Social vices: Social vices are forms of evil, wicked and criminal actions or behaviours in the society. These are social problems and have been thought of as social situations that a large number of observers feel are inappropriate and need remedying. Social vices are those acts and conditions that violate societal norms and values. Cultism: The Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary defined cult as a small group of people who have extreme religious beliefs and who are not part of any established religion. Secret Cult: Ogunade (2002) defined a secret cult as an enclosed organized association or group devoted to the same cause. It is an enclosed group having an exclusive...

...When one thinks of “stalking” one generally thinks of a creepy stranger following and learning information about someone secretly and very extensively. In general, it is also viewed as being a man stalking a women. Studies show however, that two-thirds of female victims of stalking were stalked by a current or former intimate partner; men were primarily stalked by an intimate partner or an acquaintance. (NIPSV, 2011) Stalking is harassment and although generally overlooked as being a “crush gone too far” it is carried out by people that people used to be very close with. It is no way harmless and can be extremely dangerous and even become fatal for the victims if authorities or help is not sought out. Far too many women are victims of this heinous crime and do not even report it to authorities. 83% of stalking incidents were NOT reported to police or campus law enforcement (Ibid)....
