West Point leader vows to address sexual assault
The Journal News reports:
Top Army officials on Monday said they were committed to ending sexual assault and harassment following a series of scandals at the nation’s oldest military academy.
Lt. Gen. Robert Caslen Jr., who took over as superintendent of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point last July, told the members of an oversight board new efforts were underway to develop character and prevent future incidents.
“My focus is to change the culture,” Caslen told West Point’s Board of Visitors, whose 15 members, which include Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, advise the president on issues ranging from finances to academics to discipline at West Point.
