Baylor University Accused of Infiltrating Sexual Assault Support Groups
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Baylor University has been accused of infiltrating sexual assault
survivor support groups on campus. According to PR Week, Baylor's
director of student activities, Matt Burchett, joined the sexual assault
survivor support groups and pretended to help them organize
demonstrations and vigils. But in fact Burchett was gathering
intelligence on the groups and helping water down their critiques of the
school. The Christian school is run by Kenneth Starr, who led the
investigation of President Clinton in the 1990s.
