Virginia lawmakers call for mandatory reporting of campus sexual assault

Article here. If anything good comes of the now-impugned UVA rape article, it'll be this -- but only if it entails the removal of the handling in any way of such accusations by colleges, since they aren't competent to vet criminal allegations. Excerpt:

'Virginia lawmakers are calling for mandatory reporting of campus sexual assaults to law enforcement agencies after allegations of a gang rape at a University of Virginia fraternity house.

Rolling Stone magazine last month published a detailed account of brutal sexual violence on the campus and highlighted colleges and universities’ often inadequate handling of cases that could be considered criminal assaults. Since then the university has been under increasing scrutiny.

Several Democrats and Republicans in the General Assembly will seek bipartisan consensus on passing a law in next year’s session requiring reporting within a day or two of a reported assault.'
