Season 25 of Something Was Wrong investigates sexual assault, stalking, abuse, and systemic betrayal within colleges and universities across the United States. From state schools to private campuses, an insidious culture reverberates, one where institutions often prioritize reputation, athletics, and financial interests over the safety and well-being of their students. Through in-depth reporting and survivor testimony, this season explores the origins, evolution, and current failures of Title IX—the landmark federal civil rights law designed to protect students from sex-based discrimination in education.
