Brief Description:
When education environments are hostile due to sexual harassment, assault, or violence, students cannot learn and end up missing out on true educational opportunities. AAUW’s own research revealed that two-thirds of college students experience sexual harassment and nearly half of students in grades 7–12 face sexual harassment. In addition, many studies have found that around 20% of women are targets of attempted or completed sexual assault while they are college students.
