TY - JOUR PY - 2006// TI - Campus safety: Perceptions and experiences of women students JO - Journal of college student development A1 - Kelly, B. t. A1 - Torres, A. SP - 20 EP - 36 VL - 47 IS - 1 N2 - The purpose of this research was to examine the campus experiences of undergraduate and graduate women students at a research university. Although it has been more than 20 years since the term “chilly campus climate” was described in HallandSandler (1984) seminal work, this study found such a climate, in terms of campus safety, still exists for women students. Across race, university classification, and level of involvement, the women students in this study reported a chilly campus climate that served to further perpetuate a culture of fear women students felt for their campus safety.
