Join Kathleen Hallisey, Senior Associate, and her colleague Danielle Vincent as they delve into the pressing issue of sexual abuse and misconduct on university campuses.

Inspired by a suggestion from summer placement intern Tia, Kathleen and Danielle discuss the alarming prevalence of staff-to-student sexual abuse, highlighting testimonies from universities like Exeter, Oxford, and Cambridge. They examine the power imbalances, the portrayal of such relationships in media, and the significant impact on victims' mental health and academic careers.

Learn about the efforts of the National Union of Students and the Office for Students to combat this issue, and the importance of institutional responses in preventing and addressing abuse. Tune in for an insightful conversation on a topic that demands attention and action.
