More than 100 University of California faculty and staff engaged in sexual misconduct between 2013 and 2016, according to records UC provided Tuesday to KQED and other media outlets. The cases, which span UC’s 10 campuses, involve a range of behaviors, from inappropriate comments to stalking and groping. UC released the information as it moves to strengthen its sexual violence and harassment policies following scrutiny surrounding several high profile cases. We’ll discuss the prevalence of sexual misconduct on UC campuses and how the administration is addressing the problem.
