Think Progress apparently doesn't understand how the legal system works AND is asking for a lawsuit.
A college sophomore at the University of North Carolina is being sent to the school’s “Honor Court” and may be expelled for speaking publicly about her rape.
University officials are alleging that Landen Gambill is being “disruptive” or “intimidating” her rapist by going public with her story of sexual assault, despite the fact that Gambill has not even publicly identified her rapist....
The Honor Code may also specify that rape falls under “the University’s Policy on Prohibited Harassment,” but Gambill’s rapist remains on campus. In fact, Gambill lives across the street from her assailant.
Allow me to help Think Progress out:

Seriously Think Progress, No one has been charged or convicted in this case. Therefore it is a total fabrication of fact to state that someone was raped when such a determination has not been made. There is
only a rape
claim.
Of course Think Progress would need to have an editorial staff with the moral fortitude to make sure these kinds of edits are made and enforced.
