Watch Another Sneak Peek from This Week's HBO Episode About Campus Sexual Assault

The controversy around the sheer number of sexual assaults at American colleges has overshadowed a related problem: Universities are handling these cases in their own makeshift justice systems, behind closed doors.

Media reports of sexual assaults on campuses have risen dramatically over the last few years. More and more survivors and their allies are stepping forward to denounce a pervasive culture of sexual violence that they say is out of control. But the controversy around the sheer number and frequency of these attacks has overshadowed a related problem: Universities are handling these cases in their own makeshift justice systems, behind closed doors.

For this week's episode of VICE on HBO, host Gianna Toboni visited American campuses to see what's really going on, and why many students don't think their safety is their schools' priority. Watch a new clip from the upcoming segment, titled "Campus Cover-Up," above.
