Sexual harassment prevention: What really works: Some U.S. engineering schools are training people to intervene when they see abuse - [News]

Abstract

Sexual harassment is endemic at U.S. universities and colleges, and the policies and procedures currently in place to prevent it are not working. That's the searing takeaway from a report released in June by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. Some research institutions are now seeking quantitative ways to measure and track the efficacy of their antiharassment programs-while others remain quiet.
