Recently, New York Gov. Cuomo signed legislation designed to help student survivors of sexual violence get help, including bringing clearer paths to accountability, while also trying to reform the campus culture that classifies rape as a youthful indiscretion. While legislating prevention is not a blanket solution to the issue of sexual and interpersonal violence, it is a start to reducing the statistic that one in five college women are assaulted each year. This statistic, which ignores the immense swath of people who do not report, as well as those students who do not identify as women, is still incriminating.
