“In a new study released today by the American Association of University Women (AAUW), more than half of the nearly 2,000 middle and high school students surveyed reported being sexually harassed within the last school year. Students reported that in-person harassment like sexual intimidation and unwanted touching was more likely than cyberharassment, though both are pervasive problems. Online harassment included unwanted messages from others and rumors and photos being spread. A whopping 87% of those who reported harassment said it contributed to issues like trouble sleeping, stomachaches, and even absenteeism.”
