| Summary |
An account of an Australian sexual harassment case in which two female students filed police charges against a college official. The shock of these charges split the community and painfully focused the debate about sex and power. In the autumn of 1992, two young women students at Melbourne University went to the police claiming that they had been indecently assaulted at a party. The man they accused was the head of their co-ed residential college. The shock of these charges split the community and painfully focused the debate about sex and power. |
