Groups concerned with sexual assault are not working against each other

To the Editor: Having attended portions of this weekend's conference on " Women Writers and Social Change," I feel particularly motivated to write this letter in response to several articles that appeared on Wednesday, May 4 and Thursday, May 5 in The Dartmouth that addressed recent campus activities on the issue of sexual assault. My first critique is of Thursday's article entitled "Coalitions formed to examine COS," and Friday's House Editorial, "Research Must Precede Reform." I feel that The Dartmouth has done a disservice to those students who have already put in many hours discussing issues and strategies by focusing on the division between the coalitions that have developed to address various concerns.
