Sydney University students claim Wesley College is a haven for 'rampant sexism' and has a drinking culture after some were 'slut shamed'
"Students from University of Sydney's prestigious Wesley College have deemed the institution a haven for rampant sexism and an 'en masse' drinking culture, when speaking out after a 'slut-shaming' journal was revealed.

Three Wesley College students spoke anonymously on ABC's 7.30 program and said they feared the Camperdown college, in Sydney's inner-west, put their reputation ahead of the health and safety of students. "

Not that I condone this, but colleges have been like this for years. I mean, I certainly wouldn't live in a college at Sydney uni because I know what the culture is like. It kind of feels a bit rich that people complain when they know full well what it is like beforehand.

Most colleges are like this or have this type of culture to a degree. This one seems to be a bit different though, particularly if you have a read of this article (which was not posted by OP): http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/universit...filtrate-massage-parlour-20160512-gota0b.html

These guys are just assholes.
1) The writer has an agenda to push, so the whole thing is blown out of proportion.
2) It was like 2 or so students, not a whole college. I guess you could say it was college extremists right (heh).




Anyway, the media will continue to feed the sheep stuff like this and people will continue to eat it up.

Actions should be taken to those involved. Sure it exists to some extent at every uni, but nobody bothers catching them out. Now that they have been they should be disciplined.
