It took the University of British Columbia more than a year and a half to act against a graduate student despite mounting complaints of harassment or sexual assault by at least six women on campus.

The women say Dmitry Mordvinov, a 28-year old PhD student, committed a wide range of offensive acts against them, from inappropriate touching to sexual assault. Mordvinov was quietly expelled and has told the fifth estate he's appealing.
