The Campus SaVE Act seeks to address the violence women face on campus: the highest rates of stalking, the highest risk of nonfatal intimate partner violence, and 20-25 percent of female students experiencing rape or attempted rape. This legislation, co-authored by U.S. Sen. Robert Casey, D-Pa., will update the Jeanne Clery Act, which requires publishing information on campus crime across the United States.
On Thursday, when the law took effect, Casey detailed the new protections and discussed the impact for the upcoming school year.
