Thats when her office got one report of Sexual Assault and since then reports have been gone up. In 2013, we received five reports. Of Sexual Assault. And then in 2014 it increased to 16 reports. And then last year in 2015, 16 reports again. Reporter and students usually tend to hesitate about reporting the crime because theyre afraid of retaliation. But she says making resources easily available has helped with that fear. I believe that it is not necessarily providing us with information that there is tremendous increase in actual Sexual Assaults going object, but i actually see it as students, faculty and staff understanding that now they can go somewhere to report this and to be provided with these resources that are necessary. Talked to agree. My immediate guess with that would not be that more people are being assaulted just that more are feeling comfortable to speak up about that, which is, of course, a good sign. I think it is great that people are feeling comfortable about coming and reporting. It is really nice to see that people are actually coming out and really saying what they want to say because people are scared to say things sometimes.
