The case between Dr. Blasey-Ford and Mr. Kavanaugh had gotten a lot of attention from students, faculty, and staff. Program such as Culture of Respect are now in many campuses training faculty and staff how to respond to sexual assault. The program also educates students on what to do and how to prevent sexual assaults.

Institutions have been working hard on how to make Greek life safer for students. Pennsylvania became the 45th state to implement an Anti-Hazing law. In 2017 Timothy Piazza died after excessively drinking during a fraternity pledge. Students who participate in these events may face fines, expulsion from the university, and withholding diplomas.

The institution aims at creating a diverse environment. Data gathered from the group Students for Fair Admissions is stating that the campus is putting a cap on how many Asian-Americans are accepted each year. University officials will have to go to trail and defend their current admissions procedures (Fernandes, 2018).

This case can impact how universities use affirmative action to limit race-conscious admissions policies.

Many times victims will not report the incident because they are embraced of what happened or are unaware of what is sexual assault. Title IX was passed in 1972, it prohibits sex discrimination in any institution or program that receives federal funding. This includes sexual assault and sexual harassment. It is the schools responsibility to investigate cases and protect its students (Know your rights, n.d.).

Approximately one-in-four women are sexually assaulted while in college. Social norms impact the views students have on sexual assault. Forty percent of college students believe it is the the victims fault if they were intoxicated. Many students are not aware of what constitutes as being sexually assaulted (Schwarz, Gibson, & Lewis-Arévalo, 2017).

Students believe that a salary increase would help them cover living and academic expenses.

Although institutions label graduate students as part-time, many students consider themselves full-time. Students are expected to provide assistance, teach, and conduct research.

The Perkins loan program provided low interest loans for students who had financial need. The loan allowed for those in careers such as law enforcement, teaching, and military members to receive loan forgiveness after a certain number of years. Institutions have been held responsible to cover the cost of the debt cancelled (ACE, 2018).

ACE and the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators are currently seeking that the Department of Education reimburse institutions for the debt cancelled (ACE, 2018).

The policy was created to assist undocumented immigrants who were brought to the United States at a young age. Those under the DACA policy were given a social security number, permission to work in the U.S., driverse license, and differed deportation. In 2017 President Tump receded the policy and delayed it until March 2018. Each year 5 to 10 percent of DACA recipients enroll in college (Who are the dreamers, n.d.).
