"Universities have cracked down on alcohol on their premises, but there's unsupervised drinking in frats, and there's really cemented gender norms in frats," Grigoriadis continues. In the book, she argues for shutting down or co-educating fraternities. Grigoriadis spent three years talking with 120 students at 20 schools for "Blurred Lines," and also consulted nearly 80 administrators and experts.
Grigoriadis says assault cases like those faced by former MSU team physician Larry Nassar and football players kicked off the team while facing criminal charges are rare. "Kids need to treat each other ethically, they need to have sex that's thoughtful, that's compassionate, and they need to treat their fellow students with dignity." "My book is about the fight to make these lines very straight on campus," she explains. Vanessa Grigoriadis saw it that way, too, and it's why she chose "Blurred Lines" as the title for her book. In 'Blurred Lines,' Vanessa Grigoriadis visits about 20 colleges to investigate the complexities of nonconsensual sex. Robin Thicke had a smash hit song in "Blurred Lines," vut it was also seen by some as an homage to date rape. Courtesy photo 'Blurred Lines' author Vanessa Grigoriadis
