Article here. Excerpt:
'An explosive Rolling Stone investigation into the campus-rape epidemic at the University of Virginia has left the student body and administration reeling. UVA president Teresa A. Sullivan has quickly responded to "A Rape on Campus," which reported on a student named Jackie who was brutally assaulted by seven men at a frat party — and how faculty and her friends discouraged her from sharing her story. The article also chronicled the culture of sexual assault at the school, which some UVA women have taken to calling "UVrApe," and how students and the administration work to keep this reputation quiet.
...
"The University takes seriously the issue of sexual misconduct, a significant problem that colleges and universities are grappling with across the nation," Sullivan wrote in a statement. She added that she had asked Charlottesville police to formally investigate the sexual assault on Jackie and that the university would cooperate with the authorities. Many of the details revealed in the article had not been disclosed to University officials, Sullivan claimed. She also said that the school had adopted new policies and initiatives to encourage people to report sexual assault and raise awareness around the issue.'
