1.Hunting Ground Questions: users can search
for “Hunting Ground” This film can be triggering. Your answer should have
substance (if you make a statement, explain your reasoning and why you feel the
way you do) and connect your answer to the film as much as possible. I am able
to tell if students do not watch the film and try to answer the questions
anyway. You will receive a zero on these questions if it is clear you did not
watch the film.

1.Two parts of the film that stood out were the
personal stories of the survivors and the portrayal of institutional
responsiveness. In the film, survivors of sexual harassment share their
experiences, which highlight the psychological and emotional effects of sexual
assault imposed on the victims. Moreover, two survivors, Ari and Alexis,
explain their ordeal to the university students, hence showing courage, and it
also assists other students with similar experiences to come out. The stories
shared made an impact because they humanize the issue and emphasize the need
for support and justice for the survivors who have been sexually assaulted. On
the other hand, the lack of responses from institutions to sexual assault
reports is highlighted in the film. The film showcases the prevalence of
victim-blaming, institutional cover-ups, and placing reputation over survivor's
well-being. The film highlights that the management did not take serious action
toward the reports because they received incentives. This situation was
appalling and eye-opening because it exposed the failures of the systems in
institutions that perpetuate the challenge of sexual assault on campuses.
