A freshman girl stumbles glassy-eyed at a crowded party, and a guy steps in, leading her upstairs to his room. Maybe a couple of people notice, and wonder: “Shouldn’t her friends, whoever they are, walk her home?” then turn back to their conversation. Soon, some students at Carnegie Mellon hope, bystanders will have an easy, anonymous way to ask her friends if everything is okay, and head off some bad situations. There’s national concern about the prevalence of sexual assault on college campuses, and lots of people trying to prevent it – there are efforts to teach students to be aware of the risks, to be careful, to ensure that they understand how important it is that both people say “yes.”
