21 Jump Street: S5E12: "The Education of Terry Carver"


Written
 by Thomas Perry & Jo Perry

Directed by Randy Bradshaw

Airdate: January 14, 1991

Guest Star: Christianne Hirt (Terry); Jonathan Crombie (Bill)

The Jump Street unit investigates sexual assault involving members of a college fraternity, striking a personal resonance for Hoffs. The previous season in "Stand By Your Man", Hoffs was assaulted while working undercover, and now volunteers at a crisis center. 

Hoffs becomes an advocate for Terry even when the investigation fails to back up her claims being assaulted. Things eventually lead to a cover-up involving the college administration.

Another decently well executed episode that continues a part of Hoffs story from the previous season. Privilige and cover ups at elite colleges also remain relevant decades later.
