Students Want Stanford to Apologize for Brock Turner’s Sexual Assault
A petition demanding the school apologize, as well as offer counseling for the woman and increased resources for assault survivors, has collected nearly 60,000 signatures since it was launched this week. Stanford has for years faced criticism for its handling of sexual assault and sexual harassment. Five federal investigations target the prestigious school for its handling of such cases, more than any other U.S. college or university. Stanford has repeatedly defended its actions in the Turner case, saying it did all it could to help bring justice.
