Rape culture is an issue that plagues college campuses across the country. The Obama administration launched the “It’s On Us” campaign in September to target rape culture, but sexual assault on college campuses must be addressed on a more individual scale, as well.
For this reason, the Editorial Board strongly supports Trailblaze and believe it is a meaningful way to fight sexual assault on college campuses.
Trailblaze is a new student group on campus that brings students together to have inclusive dialogue on sexual assault, similar to the goals of events like Tie a Yellow Ribbon Week and Take The Lead.
