PAVE (Promoting Awareness, Victim Empowerment) was saddened by the front-page article, â??Alleged Rape at Sigma Chi,â? published Wednesday, March 4 in The Badger Herald. While the report of the assault itself was extremely disturbing, some of the comments posted by UW students on The Badger Herald website in response to the article were equally troubling. Many of these responses reveal we live in a culture in which we are more apt to blame sexual assault victims than to hold perpetrators accountable.
