If those statistics are wrong, what are the real ones?
I've read statistics that said 1 in 5 women are raped in their lifetime. In the circle of friends I know well enough to share such information, that statistic seems pretty accurate, if not a little low.
There is a primary and robust emphasis on prevention on a lot of campuses. I don't know what world you live in, but every campus tour we went on emphasized escort services and told young women not to walk alone at night. Columbia/Barnard freshman orientation includes a session about rape, including date rape. I believe it was Lambda Chi Alpha who had a program they did on campuses about date rape at least a decade or more ago. Take Back the Night rallies are held on every campus I know of. You don't think that's a primary and robust emphasis on prevention?
