Campus sexual assault protest
A sign and small flags dot the University of Oregon campus as part of a campaign to raise awareness of sexual assault on college campuses in this 2010 photo. The sign reads, "One out of four women will be assaulted on a college campus...We need to stop sexual violence from happening in the first place."

Motion: Courts, not campuses, should decide sexual assault cases. FOR: Jed Rubenfeld of Yale and Jeannie Suk of Harvard. AGAINST: Michelle Anderson of CUNY and Stephen Schulholfer of NYU.
