sexual assault

Protestors marched at the University of New Mexico on Wednesday in the wake of a lawsuit against Cornell University by a woman who said she was gang raped. The case has ignited controversy over how the school dealt with the allegations. The march was organized to show solidarity with the Cornell student and draw attention to assaults on the UNM campus.

After a 13-year-old reported sexual assault, she was left to navigate a system where limited state and federal oversight leave school districts to decide how allegations are handled.
