Article Evaluation
I evaluated the It's On Us Wikipedia page. I found most of the cited information to be up to date and reliably sourced. However, the article lists the It's On Us movement's goals cited from the movement's own website. This is not an outside source and thus cannot be independently verified. Therefore editors should work to find another source that can confirm these are the goals of the organization. Although, in this particular instance of using a source from the subject matter of the article, I do not believe it adds significant bias as it is simply stating the goals of the organization which would be best represented by that organization's own words.

Wikipedia Assignment 3
The sexual violence group plans to add a significant section to the Campus Sexual Assault Wikipedia page on the intersectionality of campus sexual assault and queer relationships. The group plans to discuss different factors that make queer students more vulnerable to sexual assault, causes for those vulnerabilities, among other topics related to queer students' experience with sexual violence on college campuses.

Below are sources found by team members to begin this endeavor:

Wikipedia Assignment 5: Final
LGBTQ Students and Campus Sexual Assault

Within the broader population of students on college campuses, LGBTQ students experience an especially high incidence rate of sexual violence. Because of vulnerability associated with being a minority, LGBTQ people are more likely to experience sexual violence than their heterosexual peers. For example, 10% of sexual minority men, 18% of sexual minority women, and 19% of non-binary or transitioning students reported an unwanted sexual encounter since beginning college as opposed to ??? . A direct association has been found between internalized homophobia and unwanted sexual experiences among LGBTQ college aged students, suggesting that the specific stresses of identifying as LGBTQ as a college aged student puts people more at risk for sexual violence. The obstacles that LGBTQ students face with regard to sexual assault can be attributed not only to internalized homophobia, but also to institutionalized heterosexism and cisexism within college campuses. Moreover, outreach campaigns about domestic and sexual violence often do not include the experiences of LGBTQ individuals, meaning that prevention efforts may not be reaching them.

Within the broader category of LGBTQ students as a whole, gendered and racial trends of sexual violence mirror those of sexual violence among heterosexual college students, with sexual violence occurring at a higher rate among women and people of color. A study published in the American Journal of Psychology found that the disclosure rate of LGBTQ college aged students who experienced intimate partner violence was significantly lower than their heterosexual counterparts, with 35% of LGBTQ students disclosing their assaults in comparison to approximately 75% of heterosexual students. This study suggests that differences in disclosure rates may be due to minority stress indicators such as a sense that one needs to conceal one’s identity or fear of appearing different from one’s peers. It was found that lesbian women witheld disclosing their assault due to feelings of shame about their sexuality, and that other LGBTQ sexual violence victims chose not to disclose due to fear of exposing their sexual orientation. Further, when LGBTQ students do decide to disclose to a formal resource (a doctor, counselor, etc.), these formal resources are often ill-equipped to deal with the specific vulnerabilities and stresses of LGBTQ students, leaving LGBTQ students feeling unheard and leading them to be less likely to disclose or seek help in the future.

Incidents of sexual assault among LGBTQ students may be influenced by a variety of situational factors. Many members of the LGBTQ youth community suffer from serious depression and suicidal thoughts. The prevalence of attempted suicide among LGBTQ populations ranges from 23% to 42% for youth. Many LGBTQ youth use alcohol to cope with depression. One study found that 28% of those [who are "those"?] interviewed had received treatment for alcohol or drug abuse. Furthermore, rates of substance use and abuse are much higher among LGBTQ college students than heterosexuals, with LGBTQ women being 10.7 times more likely to drink than heterosexual women. Unfortunately, many predators target those appearing to be vulnerable and it was found that over one half of all sexual abuse victims reported they had been drinking when they were abused.
