Until It’s Zero blog sparks discussion
Reporting about the SGA, not a record of it: The Johns Hopkins News-Letter published this and the SGA did not write it, file it, or approve it. The archive holds it because the article itself uses the phrase “sga”.
Summary
- This Johns Hopkins News-Letter article covers a new blog and discussion about sexual assault reporting, education and policy at Hopkins.
- The paper reported that the Hopkins Feminist Alliance and SARU started the Until It’s Zero blog, which had received more than 20 anonymous accounts.
- The article says Hopkins had no reported sexual assault cases since 2007, while SARU co-chair Linda Song said that figure was surprising because some calls did not appear in campus statistics.
- The reporter writes that education programs, including the Red Flag Campaign, were being considered, and freshman senator Gauri Wagle said the SGA viewed that campaign as a major plan for the next year.
- According to the article, Song called for a better anonymous reporting system and said Hopkins was working to revise its sexual assault policy with SARU.
- The paper reported that Song said SARU would continue reporting on the issue until the statistic reached zero.
