The College of St. Benedict and St. John’s University are investigating allegations that some male students started a competition this fall to tally sexual encounters with female students.

The Institute for Women’s Leadership at the College of St. Benedict is encouraging St. Benedict students to walk out of class Thursday afternoon and participate in a sit-in to demand action and stand up against sexual misconduct.
