<p>Much outcry has been ongoing on the internet, Facebook; this website and elsewhere in response to Amherst College's administration response to and treatment of a female Amherst student who was date raped on campus. Ironically some of the outrage has been coming from Grinnell College students who naively declare it couldn't happen at Grinnell. Well I can tell you that the facts of the Amherst case are closely identical to what happened to a female Grinnell student in 2011 Moreover the Grinnell administration's response to and treatment of this Grinnell student was surprisingly similar. Yes Grinnell has a student initiated group to support survivor's of sexual assault (interesting that a small college of only 1400 students would even have to have one) but as the college's newspaper recently noted a recent major event failed to draw any administration interest.</p>
<p>Sadly, this can and does happen everywhere.</p>
<p>Do you have an article to back this up? I really don’t believe it is anywhere near what has been going on at Amherst.</p>
