Documenting Sexual offenses in Higher Education
Instructions
Write a response to the film (250-350 words) in which you reflect on what “scripts” it relies on to explain and combat gender violence on college campuses (for a discussion of “scripts” refer back to the “Afterward: Questioning the Scripts of Sexual Misconduct” reading from 3/4). Did the film rely on scripts you have heard before? Did it introduce new ones? In what ways did you find the film and the scripts it used helpful or effective? In what ways did you find it problematic? If you were going to produce a documentary about gender based violence on college campuses how would you do it? What scripts would you use? Who would you focus the documentary on? What story would you try to tell? What would you want to replicate from The Hunting Ground? What would you make sure to do differently?
