A 2000 edition of Baptist Press released disturbing information about pornography usage on college campuses. It is stated that the number of students using the internet for pornography usage could reach up to 2 million incidents per yr on college campuses. People who use the internet for this kind of situation usually are trading child pornography, adults teaching children how to access pornography, adults and minors masturbating at internet terminals. These facts disturbing because if people are using the internet for these kinds of acts who knows what might happen later on during the day or even semester. Through the college campuses their are reports of rape. Even though the number may seem low who knows what might of happened outside of school campuses. The person who viewed pornography at school could of raped a student at a bus stop, across the street, or even followed the person to a save destination and raped that subject. One of the things colleges can prevent this crime is by installing internet filters on computers so that students who want to use the college computers aren't able to access or even participate in these kinds of action. By doing so the rapes that do happen on school campuses or near school campuses will reduce.
