Quick Hit: Canadian University accused of victim-blaming

Carleton University is being sued by an assault victim who says the school failed to have adequate security measures in the building where she was attacked. In response, Carleton has said that the student didn’t keep a “proper lookout” for her own safety and should have locked the door to the lab where she was working.
Erik Halliwell, president of the Carleton University Students’ Association, says, “We’re quite saddened that it seems the university has viewed this sexual assault in a pretty dismissive manner.”
