Hosting a rape apologist is one of the last things a school with a rape problem should do. Yet, Michigan State University (MSU) just announced that the December 13th commencement speaker will be George Will, the columnist who said that campus rape survivors are making it up to achieve a "coveted status" of "victimhood."

Coming from a school under investigation for mishandling reports of sexual assault, the move blatantly disregards survivors and is completely unacceptable.

Last month, UltraViolet members stood with students at Miami University in Ohio to protest his $48,000 appearance on campus. At that speech, a student who identified herself as a survivor of sexual assault asked a question, to which Will responded that colleges should only offer support to "real survivors of real rape." WHAT?! All rape is real. If we all speak out now, we can stop George Will from disrespecting survivors at this commencement speech.

Will you add your name calling on Michigan State University to find another speaker?

George Will To Speak At Michigan State University And Receive Honorary Doctorate

Conservative columnist George Will is scheduled to speak at Michigan State University this month during graduation ceremonies, despite ongoing controversy surrounding his past comments on campus sexual assault.

The Detroit News reported that Will is scheduled to be a commencement speaker at the December 13 ceremony, and will receive "an honorary doctorate of humanities."

Will's previous speaking engagements at universities have come under fire after he published a syndicated column in June disputing the evidence that 1 in 5 women on U.S college campuses experience sexual assault, while arguing that efforts to fight sexual assault have made "victimhood a coveted status that confers privileges." His remarks received widespread criticism from U.S. senators, media, and women's equality groups.
