A former Amherst College student described her rape by a classmate and the institution's inadequate response in a 5,000-word piece published on Wednesday in The Amherst Student, gaining widespread attention on the Internet. The article details Angie Epifano's attempts to seek help after being sexually assaulted by an acquaintance. Epifano, a former member of the class of 2014 who withdrew from Amherst last summer, said she later had to work with her alleged rapist, who recently graduated with honors, on a fundraising project. After reporting the incident and her suicidal thoughts to an Amherst sexual assault counselor, she was admitted to a psychiatric ward, according to the article. Epifano said the administration did not assist her recovery, preventing her from studying abroad and enrolling in certain classes. Amherst President Biddy Martin released a statement on Thursday emphasizing Amherst's intent to review the institution's policies on sexual misconduct, including a meeting involving students and faculty members to discuss how the school's policies should be changed.
