Cheron, Ella, “1 in 10 female University of Texas students say they’ve been raped.” Teen Vogue. (2017, March 27) https://www.teenvogue.com/story/university-of-texas-one-in-ten-sexual-assault

The article analyzes the new study released by the University of Texas on rape and sexual harassment in their institutions. The study proves that sexual harassment exists in colleges in Texas, and the administrators need to work on the issues. The research states that four percent of male and 10 percent of female participants were raped as students in one of the universities in Texas that were part of the research. The research provides evidence and data on students' different forms of sexual harassment while enrolled in such schools. For example, one in every six women has been a victim of attempted or completed rape in college institutions. The article and its author are credible since it is a published report from the last five years. The article is relevant to the essay because it provides statistics and data on sexual harassment in higher institutions in Texas. For example, the percentage and number of students that volunteered for the study represent the number of students who want society to hear their story indirectly.

According to the new law, all employees, with a few exceptions, must report sexual harassment and any form of sexual misconduct in the school. The author's credentials are eligible because he writes for the Newsweek website and channel. The article is relevant to the research as it provides evidence that sexual harassment exists in college institutions in Texas. The law shows that higher learning institutions must work through the sexual harassment problem and protect students.

Fortney, Susan. S. “Preventing Sexual Harassment and Misconduct in Higher Education: How Lawyers Should Assist Universities in Fortifying Ethical Infrastructure.” Vol., 103 Minn. L. Rev. Headnotes 28., (2018). https://scholarship.law.tamu.edu/facscholar/1335

The article aims to look for ways to prevent sexual harassment and misconduct in higher education. The author begins by providing evidence of different cases reported by Michigan State about sexual harassment of students. However, the author further states that higher education administrators should use the ethical infrastructure framework to evaluate both formal and informal systems in their organizations. The framework can help college institutions deal with sexual harassment and sexual misconduct. The author is accredited by the Texas A&M University School of Law. The article is useful in researching sexual harassment in Texas college institutions as it provides ways to deal with the issue as an ethical problem. For example, addressing sexual harassment as an ethical issue requires administrators to adopt policies that define what is right and wrong within the school premises. The article shapes individuals' thinking by allowing them to view sexual harassment as an ethical problem.

Menchaca, Megan, & Austin American-Statesman. “UT received 1,415 sexual misconduct reports last school year, about 6% were eligible for investigation.” (2021, October 30). Austin American-Statesman. https://www.statesman.com/story/news/2021/10/30/ut-austin-shares-sexual-misconduct-reports-2020-2021-school-year/6182897001/

The article's main purpose is to provide information on the various cases of sexual harassment reports ongoing at the University of Texas. The author states that the number of reports on sexual harassment that the University received was 1415, but only 6 of these reports were eligible for investigation. The different cases involved in the report include dating violence, stalking incidents, sexual assault, and sexual harassment. The remaining reports that could not be investigated were either determined unfit for investigation for various reasons by the officials or submitted confidentially by the victims. The article is relevant to the essay as it gives current information on reports filed during the last academic year at the University of Texas on sexual harassment. The author's credentials are legal as she works with the Austin American Statesman, a country-wide news site. The article provides evidence of the many cases dismissed by University of Texas officials, and the cases considered provide sufficient and concrete evidence for the essay.

Texas College. “Title IX Sexual Harassment / Sexual Assault Policy. Texas College | Tyler, TX. (2020, August 12). https://www.texascollege.edu/uploads/cms/nav-77-5fa31487c3d61.pdf

The document provides details of the "Title IX sexual harassment/ sexual assault policy" adopted by Texas college.

The policy also offers information on forms of punishment employees might face for violating the policy and its terms. The article is useful to the essay as it provides the steps and procedures one can take while filing a complaint on sexual harassment and any other sexual misconduct in Texas college.

Wood Leila, Hoefer Sharon, Kammer-Kerwick Matt, Parra-Cardona Jose Ruben, & Busch-Armendariz Noel. “Sexual harassment at institutions of higher education: Prevalence, risk, and extent.” Journal of Interpersonal Violence, 36(9-10), (2018) : 4520-4544. https://doi.org/10.1177/0886260518791228

The article explores a study examining sexual harassment across eight academic institutions. It explores the effects of gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, student status, age at enrollment, and the extent of victimization for students who have undergone the experience of sexual harassment. The authors are professors and academic professionals who work with the Journal of interpersonal violence. The article is also viable because of its accuracy, dated 2018. The article supports its thesis by suggesting that female gender and sexual minority students risk facing peer/faculty harassment. Other factors that increase the risk of facing sexual harassment are time at the institution, the extent of peer victimization, and one's age at enrollment. The research will contribute to the essay by providing evidence supporting sexual harassment in Texas colleges and the factors contributing to such harassment. The research models an individual's thought to examine the real issue of sexual harassment not only in Texas colleges.
