Legislature Urged to Act Against Campus Sex Assaults

Dozens of college students and recent alumni shared their personal stories with Massachusetts lawmakers Tuesday as they urged quick action on bills aimed at providing more information on the prevalence of sexual violence on college campuses and ways to support survivors. Many were survivors themselves, including some who had experienced sexual assault in the years since the legislation they back was first filed, said Sabine Adamson, a Wellesley College student and founding member of the Every Voice Coalition, which advocates against campus sexual violence.
