Twenty-two percent of undergraduate women at Princeton University surveyed last spring said they were victims of sexual contact without their consent in incidents ranging from touching to penetration, the Ivy League school reported Tuesday. The share of undergraduate women who said they suffered non-consensual penetration — “commonly called rape,” Princeton noted — was 8 percent. In general, those findings echo others reported last week in a separate survey on sexual assault and misconduct at 27 research universities. The Association of American Universities survey found that 23 percent of female undergraduates said they were victims of sexual assault and misconduct during their time in school, and 11 percent were victims of incidents involving penetration without consent. But the Princeton survey was confined to incidents that happened during the 2014-2015 school year.
