Learning Guard Announces Groundbreaking Campus Rape Adjudication System Designed to Deter Sexual Violence and Support Victims
Learning Guard's Campus Rape Adjudication System provides a new toolkit for universities and colleges
BRICK, N.J., Aug. 31, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Learning Guard has announced the release of the Learning Guard Rape Adjudication System designed for use at colleges and universities. Learning Guard's new system will be available for the 2017 spring semester. Campus sexual crimes have garnered a tremendous level of attention in recent years. Yet until now, there has been no system available to act as a deterrent and provide uniform punishment at academic institutions.
Learning Guard's Campus Rape Adjudication System was created to address the very real and substantial problem of campus rape. According to studies and self-reporting at universities and colleges, reported rape rates are 10% and higher. Learning Guard has created a workable and implementable system to help address the campus rape epidemic.
By implementing the Learning Guard Campus Rape Adjudication System, university and college administrators send a clear message to potential rapists that sexual assault will not be tolerated. It also signals to the student body that the crime of rape is taken very seriously and perpetrators face clearly defined consequences.
Through outlining clear rules of conduct and clearly defined consequences, this revolutionary system provides an assurance of uniformity in punishment and conduct. Adopting and implementing the system demonstrates that a university or college has a universal code of conduct and system of punishment in place for the crime of rape. Universities and colleges that implement this system gain a powerful and new way to protect their school's image and funding and foster good will and confidence in their student bodies.
Founder Aaron Possick is an ethicist who has taught and lectured extensively on the importance of ethical principles and the role of ethics in a strong society. He commented, "It is highly unlikely that our system will stop rape on campus. It will, however, have a profound impact, and it is the foundation of further development of other programs. At the core of our system is support for the victim. Victims know that their school is taking the issue of rape seriously and striving to deliver real consequences."
Recently, the Learning Guard Campus Rape Adjudication System garnered the endorsement of renowned psychologist, Michael J. Salamon, Ph.D., who specializes in sexual abuse and is the author of hundreds of articles and numerous books.
Salamon noted, "A system like Learning Guard's Campus Rape Adjudication System is overdue. Many in the media have noted that campus rape is nothing short of an epidemic and everyone from celebrities such as Lady Gaga to politicians such as Vice-President Biden have commented on the need to address campus sexual violence. Learning Guard's Campus Rape Adjudication System is a much-needed start towards addressing this ever-growing problem."
