Earlier this month, in the wake of the reinvestigation of a rape allegation at Cornell University, the president of the University of Oregon put out a statement.

He wrote it because over the course of one week in September, there were five reports of sexual assault on or near the U of O campus.

At the end of his letter, the president mentioned a required sexual assault prevention training module that all students are supposed to take every fall.

And then during the COVID-19 pandemic, when everything went online, it really turbocharged the growth of that industry that was growing around these trainings.

One of the largest providers now, Vector Solutions, they offer these modules to more than 2,000 colleges and universities in the U.S.

I mentioned that these online training modules, one of them is required now at the University of Oregon.

Is that enforced now?

Some people are just really good candidates.
