"ASAP is running on an old ^^^"^——^—«^^—•• platform, NOTA is new. We will move SA in a bold, new direc­ "Wouldn't it be boring if tion," Silton said.

The 'right' to rape Telling women to be more careful will not stop rapes. Urging women to alter their lives to avoid becoming victims of violence both blames the victim and puts the burden of change on the victim. The ideas and practices of our society which perpetuate rape, sexual harassment and domestic violence must be addressed if this violence is to ever end. As Milwaukee enjoyed its first weekend of spring weather, fifteen sexual assaults were reported to the police—up by a third from a "nor­ mal" weekend. There were 1,500 such complaints filed with Milwau­ kee Police last year. The FBI estimates that only 15 percent of all sexu­ al assaults are reported to police. Meanwhile, the typical literature on sexual assault—warnings from the University or the police—go no further than to offer tips alerting women how to be more vigilant to avoid "risky situations" or informing women of their rights to seek punishment for their assailants after the fact The recent pamphlet published by UWM's Office of the Dean of Students, Street Smarts—How to Protect Yourself is typical in going no further than citing legal rights and providing a list of defensive behavior. These tips include: "Know who you're dating and meet new people in public places. Group dating is encouraged." "Be wary of anyone who: acts excessively jealous and possessive." "Be aware of your surroundings; walk with others." "Use the buddy system; look out for others." Although being careful is certainly warranted and realistic, it is unfair that women are expected to live in fear and to continually take the danger of assault into account at all times. Telling women to be more careful puts the responsibility on the victim for her own assault. If she had only been more careful, if she had only dressed more conservatively, if she had only left her house during the day, if she had only avoided eye contact if she had only been wearing a suit of plate mail, she might have been saved. With one in six college women the victim of a sexual assault before graduation and one in every three women the victim of a sexual as­ sault at some point in her life, it becomes apparent that a vast and hor­ rible social phenomenon has been systematically trivialized and per­ Perspective petuated. The problem is obviously beyond a question of being careful to avoid an unlikely and freak occurance. Rape and other violence Brainwashed and happily enlightened against women is an expression of the domination of women, not just what tne president was doing and became "enlight­ by individual misinformed or disturbed men, but as an outgrowth of by Robert W.
