In one study<ref name=":2" /> that Antonia Abby describes in her article, a group of 160 men students listen to an audiotape recording of a date rape. In the beginning the woman agrees to kissing and touching but once the man tries to remove her clothes and she refuses the male becomes more aggressive verbally and physically. The men were asked to stop the tape at the point that they felt the man's behavior was inappropriate. "Participants who consumed alcohol allowed the man to continue for a longer period of time and rated the women's sexual arousal higher than did sober participants. The findings suggest that intoxicated men may project their own sexual arousal onto a women, missing or ignoring her active protest".<ref name=":2" />

[[Chanel Miller]], a student at [[UC Santa Barbara]], was sexually assaulted by a Stanford student, [[Brock Turner]], after attending a fraternity party at Stanford. Turner was charged with five counts of sexual assault but was sentenced to only six months in prison. Throughout the trial, Miller remained anonymous through the pseudonym "Emily Doe" but stirred the public with her victim impact statement, starting a nationwide conversation. She later identified herself and published a memoir titled ''[[Know My Name (book)|Know My Name]]'', which began her activism about rape on college campuses.

One outside group, [[UltraViolet (organization)|UltraViolet]], has used online media tactics, including search engine advertisements, to pressure universities to be more aggressive when dealing with reports of rape.

After the announcement of the new finalized Title IX regulations, the UC system president, [[Janet Napolitano]], released a statement in response. In this statement, Napolitano announced their opposition with these new rules. It is believed by the UC system that along with the challenges faced by COVID-19, these new regulations will only further the barrier already in place when it comes to reporting. Their largest concern comes from the direct-examination students will be subject to if a formal complaint turns into an investigation. Lower standards from schools is also seen to "weaken fair and just policies that have taken decades to establish." However, there were aspects that the system agreed with, such as the inclusion relationship violence into the mix.<ref>{{Cite web|title=UC undeterred despite harmful federal sexual harassment rules|url=https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/press-room/uc-undeterred-despite-harmful-federal-sexual-harassment-rules-0|last=President|first=UC Office of the|date=2020-05-06|website=University of California|language=en|access-date=2020-05-12}}</ref>
