Letter: 'Rape culture' label is not justified at OU

I’ve bitten my tongue for too long on this subject and seeing yet another item last week in The Post has finally driven me to write this letter. I’m tired of hearing about this “rape culture” Ohio University supposedly is home to. It is demeaning to us as students and to our university as a whole to nonchalantly put such an extreme label on our campus culture. “Rape culture” has become a buzzword on campus ever since the notorious Court Street incident last semester. While the inexcusable event shed light on some important issues that I admit need dealt with, it’s important to note that nobody was convicted of rape by the court. “In a detailed statement, Athens County Prosecutor Keller Blackburn said the grand jury determined no probable cause for charges against the man,” (Athens News). After this incident is when the “rape culture” onslaught began in the media. Letters to the editor, editorial posts and tweets, among other channels, began to rally around this buzzword.

'Cats fall short in second half

No lead is ever safe, coaches often say. Ohio’s squandering of a seemingly insurmountable 21-point lead against Toledo on Sunday illustrated just that, as the Bobcats’ flat second-half play put them in the loser’s circle for the third-straight game.

Bobcats clinch another road victory

Ohio redshirt junior guard Javarez Willis’ three pointer with 27 seconds remaining against Eastern Michigan on Saturday not only signaled Ohio’s first lead of the game but also a continuation of the Bobcats’ success in the second half, most notably on the road.
