Caitlin Flanagan (google her name, apparently the gender feminists AND the equity feminists both hate her) is the one who wants all fraternities to be closed down because that will automatically eliminate rape. She is an idiot.
Normally, regardless of how you feel about her, Caitlin Flanagan's essays make sense. This one does not.

Liz Seccuro (the actual victim) ended up joining a sorority at UVA. None of the articles I've read about her mention any indictment of the Greek system or even that specific fraternity (she did mention that she avoided that house)--it seems like she understands that it could have happened anywhere.
