If an employee was raped at a fellow employee's party would they then go to their employer to seek help? No, they would first go to the hospital, then the police, and then a therapist. The police would arrest the perp and he/she would be summarily fired from the place of employment (some don't even wait until a trial is held). We need to teach our kids to view universities in the same way. Kids come out of high school thinking that schools should be educator, policeman and therapist.

Important story from the Chronicle of Higher Ed
http://m.chronicle.com/article/Raped-on-Campus-Don-t-Trust/228093/

Short version: rape victim goes to counseling services on campus, then finds that statements she made in those counseling sessions are used to remove her from campus. I work in higher ed and have seen this happen-a rape victim finds herself called into the dean's office and is told that she's a danger to herself and she needs to take a leave of absence-based on conversations with a therapist that she thought were private (in all the cases I know of personally, the young woman said she was not suicidal).

From the article:

"Students: Don’t go to your college counseling center to seek therapy. Go to an off-site counseling center. If, God forbid, you’ve been sexually assaulted, try to find a rape-crisis center. It will have wonderful people to talk to, free of charge. (I know from personal experience.) You simply do not have adequate privacy protections if you go to a college-provided counselor. Sorry. (Or, in the University of Oregon’s case, sorry not sorry.)

Instructors: Don’t advise your students to seek counseling in the on-campus counseling center. There is no way that, in good conscience, I can ever give that advice again. If you have a student in crisis, help that student find support off campus."
