The Hunting Ground did a good job discussing rape on campus in detail (not just in GL). That Fusion Investigates show did a fraternities episode and it touched on it as well.

It’s a tough issue. Not a whole lot of victims want to report at all, let alone talk on camera.

Same with eating disorders- there’s a lot of shame. Only substitute seek help for report.

Point being, each issue is so complicated it could and did require its own lengthy documentary. Why she thought she could roll it all into one is beyond me. Plus all the Alabama stuff.

Bama rush Doc chick just wanted to cover everything under the sun but wound up with a whole lot of nothing.

IMO If you don’t already have Max it’s not even with the $10 to watch this.

Oh, don't even get me going on the fraternity rape culture. As a student, I had many more independents try to force themselves on me than I did fraternity members, and it seems like so many women I talked with felt the same way. I've also taught at 3 campuses that didn't have Greeks and the forced sex problem was really bad.

Yeah, which is why I appreciate that the Hunting Ground handled the issue as a campus problem and not specifically a GL problem.

(In fairness the Fusion documentary was done by an alum from a fraternity whose name slips my mind atm and it was reasonably balanced)

I wouldn’t trust this Bama Rush lady with this sort of topic. Actually she’s probably make an interesting trailer and then just bore everyone to death again.
