About one quarter of undergraduate women say they’ve been sexually assaulted, according to a disturbing new national survey, which found that at one school, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the figure was a startling 1 in 3, a report said.

The Association of American Universities released the findings of its Campus Climate Survey on Sexual Assault and Sexual Misconduct on Tuesday in which 181,752 students from 33 public and private institutions participated.

According to the survey, 41.8 percent of all participants reported experiencing sexual touching or penetration involving physical force and the inability to consent.

“The disturbing news from this year’s survey is that sexual assault and misconduct remain far too prevalent among students at all levels of study,” AAU president Mary Sue Coleman said in a statement.

The survey found that since entering college, nonconsensual touching is experienced most by undergraduate women and TGQN (transgender, gender queer and non-conforming) students.

According to the survey, 25.9 percent of undergraduate women experienced sexual touching without consent, while 22.8 percent of undergraduate TGQN experienced the same, according to the survey.

Nearly 7 percent of undergraduate men reported nonconsensual sexual touching.

Overall, 18.9 percent of students reported sexually harassing behavior that either “interfered with their academic or professional performance,” “limited their ability to participate in an academic program” or “created an intimidating, hostile or offensive social, academic, or work environment.”

Twenty percent of all students who participated in the survey were from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where 1 in 3 undergraduate women reported having been sexually assaulted, according to WRAL.com.

“The data are very concerning and reinforce what we know to be true both on our campus and across the country: sexual assault and sexual harassment are serious problems that deeply affect our community,” said UNC interim chancellor Kevin Guskiewicz in a statement.

The Association of American Universities conducted a similar study in 2015.

“The good news — made possible by comparing data from the 21 schools that participated in both the 2015 and 2019 surveys — is that students are more knowledgeable than they were four years ago about what constitutes sexual assault and misconduct, how to report it, and what resources are available to victims,” Coleman said.

Coleman added: “Although we’ve made progress, there is much work to do. Our institutions within AAU and other colleges and universities must continue to educate students about how to report sexual assault and misconduct.”
