Ohio State to Violate Students’ Rights Using Student Funds
Women’s Group Demands Cancellation of Rape-Promoter Tucker Max
Sexual Assault Awareness Month has barely come to a close, and already The Ohio State University is choosing to create a hostile environment for women, violating its own non-discrimination policy as well as state and federal law. At 7:30 p.m. on Monday, May 11th in Hitchcock Hall, OSU will be sponsoring the rape-celebrating Tucker Max as a speaker, using OSU students’ dollars. From a Tucker Max story describing his several-week persistent coercion of a woman into anal sex, “I was going to **** her in the butt and film it without her consent.”*
WARR demands that Ohio State follow its non-discrimination policy as well as state and federal law and does not use the student activity fee to violate students’ rights.
For more information or to schedule an interview, contact WARR at warrosu@gmail.com.
