annie was a freshman and andrea a sophomore each attending unc. north carolina at chapel hill. each says the university failed to protect them in the first place. or give them the support that they needed to cope with the experience afterwards. >> the last thing i would want to do is to walk in to an office, immediately after, and say, this happened to me this happened to me, this happened to me and to be questioned about it for hours upon hours. >> i know when i did report, because i did, i was blamed for my own experience. >> what what does that mean blamed? >> i was told that rape was like a football game and i should look back on my experience if i was playing this game and what would i have done differently to avoid that situation. >> there is depression, eating disorders cutting, there is this internal blame. and a lot of that burden is placed on the victim to change her lifestyle because, you know, it's your fault, you gotta get over it. figure out what you can do to make it better. >> since 1972, the u.s. department of education, under tit

why did we first go to unc? we were following up on a scandal from two years ago, when it was discovered that many student athletes were enrolled in classes that required little or no work. even though the ncaa found that it found no athletic scandal, a professor was recently indicted for fraud, and its own internal investigation found evidence of academic fraud. as a result the school says it put in place 120 reforms and insists that unc's athletic program is now clean. you're confident here you are doing the right thing by student athlete? >> we are. and we also have the competitive and students have to compete monday through friday as well and on saturday. the once truly committed to being outstanding students, they are. >> reporter: mary willingham is skeptical that the changes have made a difference. >> we said we made 120 changes, which you can make all the changes you want, if you're still not meeting students where they're at and bringing them along, then those changes are all for nothing. >> reporter: n

we said unc isn't a bad place.t is a representation of a larger cultural problem. >> the women began researching title ix, interviewing other victims of rape, utilizing social media and, in january of 2013, along with former unc administrateo melinda manning and two others, they filed a federal complaint against the university of north carolina at the department of education. >> i think this is a microcosm of what is happening across the country. we are seeing these crimes are committed. the university is sweeping them under the rug. the department of education, not holding anyone accountable and students are being the ones who say this is not okay. so when you have 18 and 19-year-old men and women who are holding the government accountable for rape like it just -- it boggers my mind. >> as for annie and andrea, they have turned their or deals into a mission to bring light into a part of campus light that has been too long in shadow. >> in the shadows not too much longer, we hope. president obama is giving the task

unc says those academic experts that we consulted, that they are wrong.been blow back from mary willingham. her permission to do will search was pulled yesterday. the university said she broke rules that she wasn't supposed to know the names of the students that she was studying, names that she never published in her findings. willingham has also received death threats so it's not surprising that some of the people that we've talked to in the last few days haven't wanted cnn to use their names but we did speak to the psychologist who administered the tests that willingham used in her research and that psychologist backs of the findings, that many of these student athletes could barely read. jake? >> just to reiterate, the university is saying that the findings are a travesty. they disagree. they are criticizing her findings. the university also says that you did not ask them for their data when you began this report. respond to that. >> right. and that's important. we asked for data from a lot of schools and we asked several times since september, we've r

and before cnn aired the story, we got our own confirmation from unc officials that they did hear fromand her concerns about athlete tutoring. unc also told cnn it wasn't part of her job duties to do this research but she shared this document with us. it shows she did have permission. meanwhile, willingham says the public safety department has called her. a police spokesman told cnn they will look into the threats against her. >> now, jake, of course, cnn's investigation was much, much bigger than just unc. we interviewed dozens of people at several universities and collected data on more than 1,000 different athletes across the country. we looked at the reading levels of many athletes and since that story has aired, i have heard from even more people who are either currently or used to work with athletes, all thanking us for talking about this issue. jake? >> sara, let's be honest here. let's be frank. student athletes not being the strongest academically graduating barely able to read, is this ever going to change? >> you know, that is the question that i hear over and over and over
