Thanks to the efforts of everyone from student activists to Vice President Joe Biden, people are slowly starting to acknowledge that rape on college campuses is an enormous problem. At Brigham Young University, however, that doesn’t seem to be the case. Students at the university claim they’ve been investigated — and, in some cases, disciplined — for violating the school’s code of conduct after filing reports of sexual assault, the Salt Lake Tribune reported.
In interviews with Mic and the Salt Lake Tribune, students have said the school’s associate dean of students and Title IX coordinator, Sarah Westerberg, refers all reports of rape to BYU’s Honor Code office, which enforces campus-wide behavioral standards set by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. According to student reports, the Honor Code office has allegedly taken punitive action against rape victims for breaking school rules, effectively blaming them for “causing” their own assaults by violating the code of conduct.
