ESPN Investigation Alleges Mishandling of Campus Rape at Baylor U.

An ESPN investigation chronicles several instances in which female former students at Baylor University say it failed to offer them support after they were sexually assaulted, between 2009 and 2012.

“They didn’t just not respond; they responded by turning me away and telling me that it was not possible for me to receive help from them,” one woman told ESPN’s Outside the Lines.

Baylor, which is not among the more than 100 campuses under federal Title IX investigation, did not make administrators available for comment, according to an ESPN article. The university’s Title IX coordinator, Patty Crawford, told ESPN that the university had hired consultants to review past cases of alleged sexual assault.

This is not the first time Baylor has found itself in an unwelcome spotlight on the issue of campus rape.
