Well, let's see how this situation turns out.
Jane Doe 7, plaintiff in KU sexual assault lawsuit, comes forward in video
According to the article, the events occurred during August 2015. With as much added attention and exposure about sexual abuse in college, this is not a situation that can be taken lightly. Not saying that it was okay to look over in the past, but something needs to happen to help combat this consistent type of abuse.
Here is a timeline that is included in the article:
Timeline of Jayhawker Towers sexual assault lawsuits
• October 2014 — Football player rapes KU freshman rowing team member Daisy Tackett in his apartment at Jayhawker Towers, according to Tackett.

• October 2015 — McClure and Tackett both report sexual assaults to KU Office of Institutional Opportunity and Access. McClure also files a report with KU police, on Oct. 19, 2015.
• December 2015 — Tackett and McClure are not allowed to attend rowing training camp in Florida. They contend coach excluded them in retaliation for reporting their assaults.
• February 2016 — Tackett withdraws from KU and returns home to Florida.
• March 11, 2016 — Tackett’s parents, James and Amanda Tackett, sue KU under the Kansas Consumer Protection Act, accusing KU of misleading the public by representing campus housing as safe.

• March 2016 (approximately) — KU, following IOA investigation, finds football player responsible for misconduct and expels him. His name disappears from football roster.
• April 19, 2016 — McClure sues KU under Title IX, filing the lawsuit under the name Jane Doe 7.

With the development of the new dorms and everything else, I'm not saying that something has to be mandated, but how can the university, athletic department, and those in charge of housing help educated and initiate something to make moments like this one happen fewer times than desired.
