abstract="OBJECTIVES: Following changes in federal regulations, the current study was an examination of differences in institutional responses to sexual violence among Georgia colleges and universities during 2013 and 2014. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 24 four-year institutions located in the state of Georgia were included. <br><br>METHOD: Data were collected from various sources in phases from March 2013 to December 2015 and included institutional characteristics from each college website, a content analysis of college annual security reports and sexual misconduct policies, and a college administrator online survey. <br><br>RESULTS: Seventy percent of the institutions were deemed &quot;Clery compliant&quot; in 2013 but only 12 percent, in 2014. There was substantial variability in definitions used in sexual misconduct policies and with respect to the description of investigation and adjudication procedures. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: There is extensive variability in institutional responses to sexual violence across universities and colleges despite recent media attention and federal guidance.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
