Juicy Campus falls under critism for content. What do you think?

juicycampusbeta.jpg

Has anyone checked out the juicycampus.com site? ABC's 20/20 did an expose on Juicy Campus Friday night, and on Saturday the site was bascially overloaded.

Juicycampus.com is a college networking site of sorts, but the comments found are distrubing. It seems unregulated and unmonitored leaving a lot of room for very hurtful stories and private affairs to be made public.

Students can post anonymous messages and comments about their classmates.

ABC told the story of Chelsea Gorman, a Vanderbuilt University student who was raped by a homeless man. Gorman was still recovering from her attack when she found this on juicycampus.com:

"Chelsea Gorman Deserved It," the topic posted on Vanderbilt University's JuicyCampus.com read.

Here's what some sick college kid wrote, "what could she expect walking around there alone. everyone thinks she's so sweet but she got what she deserved. wish i had been the homeless guy that f***** her. [sic]"

Can you imagine? Oh the things they would have posted about me!

Evidently there is a federal probe into the operations of Juicycampus.com. We'll have to see what happens.
