\"Campus-Rape-Protest\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The feminist legal scholar Catharine MacKinnon<\/a> once argued<\/a> that rape was not prohibited, but merely regulated. She was writing in 1989, four years before it became illegal to rape one\u2019s spouse<\/a> in all 50 states. At the time, rape was quite clearly regulated in some states: you could rape your spouse, just not anyone else.<\/p>\n

MacKinnon, though, wasn\u2019t talking only about the law; she was talking about what happened outside the law, too. She was saying something far more provocative: No matter the law, certain strategies for gaining sexual compliance are sometimes allowed, and certain people can get away with sexual coercion and violence more often and more easily than others.<\/p>\n

Learning about such experiences was, unfortunately, an inevitable part of writing \u201cAmerican Hookup: The New Culture of Sex on Campus,\u201d<\/a> my book about sex in college. To understand student experiences, I visited 24 institutions, read hundreds of firsthand accounts of hookup culture published in college newspapers, collected 101 student journals about life in the first year and reviewed the now-extensive work on hookup culture by social scientists, which included survey data summarizing 24,000 student responses.<\/p>\n

One outcome of this work was an understanding of the role that status plays in organizing sexual activity on campus. Status shapes who has access to sex, with whom and with what consequences. All things being equal, high-status students benefit from hookup culture, while low-status students suffer harm or exclusion.<\/p>\n

\nAmong the most high-status students on campus are athletes \u2013 especially men who play the most celebrated sports. These students carry the kind of privilege that MacKinnon described, and they often know it. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, a six-time NBA champion and MVP, once called out<\/a> his fellow student-athletes on this issue:<\/p>\n

I\u2019m especially aware of the culture of entitlement that some athletes feel, as they strut around campus with the belief that they can do no wrong.\u201c<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

On average, athletes are more likely than other students on campus to identify with hypermasculinity<\/a>, endorse<\/a> rape<\/a> myths<\/a> and the double<\/a> standard<\/a>, be confused about consent<\/a> and report committing<\/a> acts<\/a> of sexual<\/a> aggression<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In writing “American Hookup\u201d \u2013 in listening carefully to students and documenting how they choose and talk about their sexual partners \u2013 I came to understand how high-status athletes are able to persist in holding and acting on these beliefs if they choose to, and with greater impunity than their peers.<\/p>\n

Sex and status on college campuses<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the culture of sex that dominates college campuses today, status is what sex is all about.<\/p>\n

\"<\/a>

Many college football players are adored \u2013 almost worshipped \u2013 by their peers. AP Photo\/Heather Ainsworth<\/p><\/div>In some ways, status simply gives athletes sexual access. Students who follow hookup culture\u2019s rules choose to hook up with people they think will enhance their own popularity. As one of the female students who submitted a semester-long journal wrote: \u201cIt\u2019s almost bragging rights if you hook up with a guy with a higher social status.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe whole point,\u201d wrote another in her journal, \u201cis to get some and then be able to point the person out to your friends and be like, \u2018Yeah, that guy. That\u2019s right. The hot one over there. I got that.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Hookup culture is about \u201chaving game\u201d: It\u2019s about \u201cscoring\u201d with someone your peers think is \u201cworth\u201d getting, someone who \u201ccounts.\u201d In that game, as one of my male students put it, \u201csex is a commodity.\u201d<\/p>\n

If hookup culture is status-based, then high-status students like athletes are at an advantage. \u201cIt automatically sounds better,\u201d explained another one of my female students, to say \u201cI hooked up with a guy on the football team\u201d instead of \u201cI hooked up with a guy.\u201d As a female student at Duke<\/a> put it:<\/p>\n

\u201cFrat stars and athletes \u2013 those are the only ones that matter. I mean, honestly.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Since their star status gives athletes plentiful opportunities to hook up, athletes sometimes find themselves following a hookup script that bears a queasy resemblance to sexual assault. As the students in \u201cAmerican Hookup\u201d reveal, it\u2019s expected in hookup culture that students will get people drunk with the aim of having sex with them; be sexually persistent, even forceful; pull peers into secluded parts of a party; and proceed quickly to sexual intercourse, even when their partners are near incapacitation.<\/p>\n

In this way, hookup culture both catalyzes and camouflages sexually coercive behavior: It instigates it at the same time that it makes it invisible. This puts high-status students like athletes at substantial risk of engaging in sexually violent behavior, if only because they have the most opportunity to play out this script. They may also be unlikely to be interrupted when they\u2019re crossing the line.<\/p>\n

Status undermines bystander intervention<\/strong><\/p>\n

Encouraging and training students to interrupt sexual assaults before they begin \u2013 what we call bystander intervention \u2013 is one of the most<\/a> promising<\/a> prevention<\/a> strategies<\/a>, but the social power of some athletes may make it harder for peers to interrupt a potential assault when they see one happening. Students are in a social hierarchy and they know it.<\/p>\n

As numerous students revealed, it\u2019s one thing to pull a drunken peer out of the arms of some guy who lives down the hall; it\u2019s entirely another to do so when he\u2019s one of the most prominent and well-loved students on campus.<\/p>\n

When bystanders don\u2019t intervene, it\u2019s left up to victims to come forward and prevent future assaults themselves. But the decision to report is almost always difficult and fraught, which is why 80 percent of campus sexual assaults go unreported<\/a>. When students have been victimized by celebrated athletes, reporting can take an even more heroic amount of bravery \u2013 especially if the victim doesn\u2019t have equal standing on campus. Victims know that their anonymity may be compromised and, when it is, they could be subject to the wrath of those who liken athletes to gods.<\/p>\n

Status and institutional protection<\/strong><\/p>\n

In cases where victims do decide to report the assault, they sometimes discover that their institutions are as inclined to protect the perpetrator as their peers.<\/p>\n

Growing evidence suggests that in some instances, administrations protect athletes<\/a> named as perpetrators of sexual assault. A survey of 440 colleges and universities<\/a> found that staff or administrators sometimes discourage victims from reporting, downgrade an assault\u2019s severity, delay proceedings while athletes finish their season or graduate, or simply fail to follow up altogether. When athletes are found responsible for sexual assault, they may suffer only trivial consequences.<\/p>\n

In just the last five years, there have been allegations made against administrations for responding improperly to reports of assaults by athletes at a minimum of 19 colleges and universities: Amherst<\/a>, Baylor<\/a>, Columbia<\/a>, Notre Dame<\/a>, Vanderbilt<\/a>, Hobart and William Smith<\/a>, Boston University<\/a>, Loyola University at Chicago<\/a> and the Universities of Connecticut<\/a>, Delaware<\/a>, Florida State<\/a>, Kansas<\/a>, Michigan<\/a>, Missouri<\/a>, Montana<\/a>, New Mexico<\/a>, Niagara<\/a>, North Carolina<\/a>, Richmond<\/a>, Tennessee<\/a> and Tulsa<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Colleges and universities have a problem in the form of a perverse incentive: Because of the relationship between higher education and sports, protecting their athletes is akin to protecting the institution itself<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The status quo<\/strong><\/p>\n

Catharine MacKinnon\u2019s comments, almost 30 years later, still have the ring of truth. Certain people can get away with sexual coercion and violence more often and more easily than others. On college campuses, hookup culture is part of why.<\/p>\n

Intervening as a bystander is difficult enough already<\/a>, but my research has shown that students are even less inclined to do so when it means confronting someone with substantially more social power. And when men and women are assaulted by high-profile athletes or other high-status students, they may fear that reporting will bring further suffering \u2013 this time at the hands of their peers and their institutions.<\/p>\n

There are things we can do.<\/p>\n

Most colleges and universities aren\u2019t currently in compliance<\/a> with the law and fail to follow the best known practices for prevention, reporting and adjudication. Higher education needs to get itself into shape. Institutions then need to follow those practices consistently, even when it harms their reputation or bottom line.<\/p>\n

None of this, of course, undermines the perverse incentives faced by administrators tasked with protecting both students and the institutions they represent, nor the devotion students have to their schools\u2019 star athletes. Colleges also need to institutionalize a different relationship between higher education and sports<\/a>. If we want to make real inroads against sexual assault on campus, we need to do more than handle the crisis as effectively as we know how; we need to actively work to reduce the status that both athletics, and athletes, enjoy.<\/p>\n

More broadly, we need to change the culture itself. We need to help students question whether sex should be about status at all. Must casual sex be an inherently competitive game with winners and losers? Or, could partners be chosen for their generosity or a shared affinity? Students could place a premium on pleasure and personal growth instead of popularity. Until they change their minds about the role sex plays on campus, sexual misconduct will continue to be more regulated than prohibited.<\/p>\n
