Cavalier Daily Apr 19, 2016 - In 2016, collegiate clubs say coeducation could cause sexual assault

Charles Storey, former Graduate Board President of Harvard's all-male Porcellian Club, argues that making clubs co-educational would increase rates of sexual violence. The writers criticize Storey's stance, arguing that when clubs are single-sex, most male/female interactions are confined to a sexualized party setting. Thus, the writers speculate that maintaining gender segregated clubs may exacerbate sexual violence, and that Storey's stance borders on victim blaming.
