Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: In spite of years of rape prevention efforts, sexual assault continues to be a problem on college campuses. This paper argues that inadequacies of current policy are partially a result of incomplete understandings of way that the social organization of college life and adolescent peer cultures intersect to produce dangerous party scenes on campuses. We extend existing analyses of the sources of sexual danger (Martin & Hummer 1989; Boswell & Spade 1996) in four ways. Sexual assault is supported not only by rape-supportive beliefs, but also by rape-supportive social organization. Greek life is only one aspect of campus social organization, existing only on some campuses. Other aspects of student life also contribute to rape-supportive social organization. The dynamics of peer culture also contribute to the reproduction of sexual danger, as desire for belonging can lead young people to continue to participate in risky social scenes. This study uses data from a case study of the social organization of college life at a large Midwestern university. The authors collected four months of ethnographic data in �party dorm,� 20 individual interviews, and 16 group interviews (involving 89 people).
