presumably a safer person to tell.
Yeah.
And the story I kept hearing over and over and over again was about sexual assault within the residential colleges at Sydney University.
And one one student in particular disclosed that she'd been sexually assaulted by St.
Paul's student.
And in the next year, she came back and she said, do you remember the name of that person that I mentioned?
And I said, yes.
And she said, look at this.
And it was a Facebook group that he'd made called Defined Statutory Pro-Rape Anti-Consent.
And the picture for the Facebook group was a T-shirt that says, does this shit make me look like a rapist?
And all of the members of the group were St.
Paul students.
And she made the decision that she was going to take that to the media.
And when she did, her motivation was to get cultural change and to get consent education within St.
Paul's College and the residential colleges.
Unfortunately, when it went to the media, it blew up on page one of the City Morning Herald.
But when that happened...
The reaction from the colleges was not shock and horror.
It was defensiveness and minimization and Davo.
And it was, you know, pretending like they were being the victims of the big bad media.
