Description

After the recent sexual assaults on campus, we decided to look further into the history of this issue and how it has affected MNSU's students and the administration. Prior research has shown that colleges can be held liable for sexual assaults that have occurred on campus under Title VII. Our research focused on the frequency of sexual assaults and what action has been taken to address these attacks. Our research examined whether MNSU has been or could have been held liable, as well as what security measures have or will the University take to resolve these issues. We have collected data from various resources including the Minnesota State University, Mankato Security, The Women's Center, and the library, Mankato public library, and the Mankato Police Department. 64
