Dickinson College students are marching today in protest of college policy about on-campus sexual assault reporting. Among their demands: Dickinson must send out campus alerts with every report of a sexual assault.

Students say they also want Dickinson to discipline students who make catcalls and lewd comments.

College administrators are out in force and President Bill Durden said he welcomes a dialogue with students on the issue.

He said that the school is in the midst of a broad study and improvements of its policies on sexual assault. He said some student demands were already slated to be included in policies. He said, however, that students' insistence on openness must be considered along with federal student privacy laws.

The protest began at 11 a.m. on the Old West lawn off West High Street in Carlisle.
