Sexual Assault Awareness Month

2022 Sexual Assault Awareness Month

Learn more about Title IX, Sexual Misconduct, College policy and resources, and rape culture.

Join a Bi-Co group of faculty, staff, and students to collaborate and support students in need of guidance through the Title IX process.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Please join us in supporting survivors of sexual misconduct

Our goals:

  • healing our community and increasing availability of supportive resources available to students
  • increasing transparency within these difficult topics, experiences, and the Title IX process

We also want to hear from students and faculty! If you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding:

  • Programming for SAAM
  • Title IX office, policies, and procedure
  • Available resources for students
  • Any other concerns

Please feel free to respond anonymously to the form linked below or attend one of the multiple open-question sessions with Kimberly Taylor. If you have a question and would like an email response or to set up a meeting, please include your email on the feedback form, but know that this is optional
