But campuses have always had problems with stalking, sexual harassment, bullying, rape, and robbery, among other things. In fact, the incidence rates of campus violence are quite startling. Between 8 and 15 percent of college women say they have been raped. Battering occurs in up to a third of all couples in dating relationships in the United States. Fortunately, there are solutions to the problem of campus violence. In "Understanding and Preventing Campus Violence", Paludi and a host of experts detail preventive procedures as well as methods to stay safer on campus.Experts in law, HR/employment policy, psychology, criminal justice, and education offer sage, real-world advice to campus administrators, parents, students, and employees on how to prevent and manage campus violence.
