Biden To Speak Against Sex Assault At University Of Colorado

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — Vice President Joe Biden is coming to Colorado on Friday as part of a White House initiative to prevent campus sexual assaults.

Biden will speak at the University of Colorado in Boulder as part a campaign that urges students to pledge to intervene to stop assaults and promote an environment where assaults are unacceptable.

The University of Colorado is one of more than 100 schools being investigated by the U.S. Department of Education for their handling of sexual assault complaints. The probe began more than two years ago.
