This documentary short takes an in-depth look at the current culture of collegiate sports with respect to off-field behavior and sexual assault issues. In this piece, a solution through mentoring in education is presented, provoking the thought that rather than only looking at crime and punishment, a solution through education is much more of an answer.

We hear from Senator Claire McCaskill as she questions the president of the NCAA in a senatorial hearing, we hear the painful story of a coed at the University of Connecticut who is a rape victim and a further victim of school administrative policy. Additionally, we hear from Nancy D. Young, Ph.D., CAFMT, Certified Gottman Therapist, and we hear from John A Kuri II, MD, Orthopedic Surgeon, Elbow and Shoulder Sports Medicine Specialist and Trauma Surgeon, formerly a team physician for the Philadelphia Eagles. They discuss the by-product of violence in the sport.

Finally, we experience a special class conducted by college instructor/sex therapist/counselor Laurie Handlers. This highly respected, experienced and successful Sex Therapist and Teacher provide sex education, guidance, and mentoring in a class and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
