Acoso sexual en la universidad (de Harvard)

El acoso sexual en la universidad trasciende poco a la sociedad. Forma parte del the Harvard Crimson's take on the AAUW's sexual harassment report:

"According to the study, more male than female students are the perpetrators of harassment. Although the study shows that male and female students are equally likely to experience some sort of harassment, it appears that “female students are more likely to be upset by sexual harassment” than male students. And females are more likely change their behavior or to experience disruption in their class work or sleep because of it.
Sixty-eight percent of female students reported feeling “very or somewhat upset” by harassing behavior—as opposed to only 35 percent of male students.
The co-chair of the Radcliffe Union of Students, Dana F. Goodman ’07, who has been a part of the campaign for a women’s center to provide a “safe space” for female students on campus, said that it was beneficial for the administration to “become aware of this, that it is a specific problem, so that people are comfortable speaking out about it.”
“I think that what we should learn from the study is to use it as an opportunity to look at Harvard’s campus and the climate and interactions here,” Goodman said.

La Universidad de Harvard ha luchado contra el acoso sexual durante más de 10 años y en septiembre pasado inauguraron un centro específico sobre la materia.
