rape culture confirmed

Lavish new athletic facility proves that University of Oregon enables rape culture, critics say

fta:
with the construction of the latest athletes-only facility – a “sports performance center” that costs $19 million – critics of UO’s priorities are bringing a new claim: It’s encouraging athletes to commit sexual assault.

no mention of an s&m dungeon though or blowing assistant soccer coaches in a parking lot, allegedly

some faculty and advocates of sexual-assault victims say it’s giving athletes a dangerous sense of entitlement:
[Doctoral student Dana] Rognlie and Stabile, along with other feminists and sexual assault awareness advocates, believe putting athletes on a pedestal like that could even be connected to past behavioral problems.


one, a doctorate from oregon is really worth it and two...

They point to a men’s basketball press conference from almost two years ago, right after three players were accused of raping a student, where Rognlie asked coach Dana Altman what sexual-assault training they went through: “The athletic department has a number of programs that we put our student athletes through at the beginning of each year,” Altman said to her. “One, specifically, for this type of activity, was not done this year.”

oh noes!

Rognlie told an Oregonian reporter at the time that she was “deeply disturbed” by that

she did not say she was "shaking and about to vomit" so she has that going for her, which is nice.
