Reference Management. Interesting Finds. Learning. Web Tools. More than one in four. One in four college women report experiencing attempted rape or acts that meet the legal definition of rape, but the number only skims the effect of sexual crime on college campus. Sexual assault is underreported on college campuses because many women are embarrassed by it or believe it is rare. A former student of Amherst College, Angie Epifano, had the same mentality until she published her rape account in the opinions column of Amherst’s student newspaper.
