Feminist Ad Campaign Smears Top Universities with ‘Rape Problem’
Now, when prospective applicants search for the names of eight top universities, one of the first things they’ll see is an advertisement which simply states that the university they are searching for “has a rape problem.”
A gross distortion of facts? Yes. A blatant misrepresentation of these universities’ work to curb sexual assaults? Yup. Propaganda meant to trigger and feed on mass hysteria? The radical feminists wouldn’t have it any other way.

Feminists’ Ad Campaign Targets Universities, Warns of Their ‘Rape Problem’
A militant feminist organization, UltraViolet, recently targeted eight prestigious universities, posting ads online about an alleged “rape problem” at the schools.
Schools targeted in the operation are Florida State, American, UC Berkeley, Harvard, Occidental College, University of Michigan, Dartmouth College, and Brandeis University, The Huffington Post reported.
The ads popped up when prospective students researched the schools online or on social media, and offered messages such as: “Accepted to Harvard? You should know about its rape problem,” and “Florida State University has a rape problem. Find out more before you decide.”
UltraViolet told WFSU, a public media outlet in Northern Florida, that its goal is to pressure the schools to adopt anti-rape guidelines recently proposed by the White House for universities.
UltraViolet did not respond to repeated inquiries by The College Fix for comment.
Karin Roland, organizing director at UltraViolet, told WFSU that their goal is to let women who are deciding what college to attend know about assault claims facing the colleges. She also said it will force campus administrators to do more about it.
The campaign launched a few months ago, and it’s one of many the organization has tackled.

“Come to our campus where you’ll incur tens of thousands of dollars in debt, where the women face a 20 per cent chance of being raped, and where 100 per cent of the men are potential rapists!”
Yup, sounds like a campaign to me…
