Oh Please

The 1 in 4 number is wildly inaccurate and comes from a completely discredited study from MsMagazine. Read this article for a real analysis with proper stastics that will put the discussion in the proper framework.

This is a link to a well researched article on actual rape rates and false rape accusations.

These numbers are actually low given how hard many colleges, work to cover up rapes, especially when they are committed by students and that many rapes are never reported in the first place.  

Why would you even post something like this?

1 out of every 6 American women have been the victims of an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime

Your articles seem pretty biased.  I suggest people read THIS  link...

Considering it is RAINN's goal to help those who have been raped, assaulted, molested, you may think their stats are biased, but  the sources for their stats are more reliable.
