This study estimates the incidence of sexual violence on independent Christian campuses using a sample of part-time and full-time undergraduate students (N = 668) from eight private Christian colleges in Ontario, Canada. Using two widely used measures of sexual violence enabled comparisons with studies of self-reported incidents at secular and public colleges and universities. The findings show that 18% of women at religious colleges reported experiencing unwanted sexual contact within the past year, compared to studies of self-reported rates on secular campuses ranging from 21.4% to 31.4% . Exploratory investigation of factors related to victimization suggests that religious colleges may provide a “moral community” that could reduce the risk of sexual violence.  \nRésumé  \nQuoique les universités religieuses contribuent considérablement à l’ensemble del’enseignement supérieur enAmérique du Nord, la fréquence des agressions sexuelles sur leurs campus demeure peu étudiée.

Nos résultats démontrent que dans les universitésreligieuses, 18 % des femmes ont rapporté des contacts sexuels non désirés au cours de l’année dernière, comparativement à de 21,4 à 31,4 % des femmes des universités laïques ayant rapporté des agressions sexuelles. Des facteurs liés à la victimisation suggèrent la possibilité que les universités religieuses puissent offrir une « communauté morale » qui diminue les risques d’agression sexuelle.  \nIntroduction  \nDespite increasing awareness and successive waves of government grantsand programs in both Canada and the United States, popular media stories (Black, 2015; Parry, 2015; Sawa & Ward, 2015; Westwood, 2016) and empirical evidence reveal that sexual violence remains persistent on campus (Adams-Curtis & Forbes, 2004; Cantor et al., 2015; Carr, 2005; Fedina, Holmes & Backes, 2016; Fisher, Cullen & Turner, 2000; Krebs, Lindquist, Warner, Fisher, & Martin, 2007) . Although there has been extensive attention to documenting the occurrences and experiences of college women and to developing and evaluating prevention programs (Fleck-Henderson, 2012), most of this work has focused on large, secular, and public campuses. Koss, Gidycz, & Wisniewski’s (1987) landmark study briefly noted that the rates of reported rape by women varied significantly by the type of higher education institution. Specifically, Koss et al. (1987) found that women at religiously affiliated colleges reported rapes at half the rate (7%) of private colleges (14%) and major universities (17%). Despite this finding nearly 30 years ago, the incidence of and factors related to sexual violence on religious campuses remain relatively understudied. We employ the term “sexual violence” to capture a range of unwanted sexual experiences of varying severity and intrusiveness from either known or unknown perpetrators (Adams-Curtis & Forbes, 2004).
