"Campus Sexual Assault: Tarnishing the Ivory Tower"

A free meeting open to the public on Saturday, January 10, 2015 at 10:15 a.m. Easttown Library, 270 First Ave, Berwyn, PA 19312.

The number of reported sexual assaults on campus is rising exponentially. No college or university is immune. Nina Gurak, a junior at Wesleyan University, President of Students for Consent Communication, and a member of Wesleyan University’s Title IX Committee, will discuss the legal framework of Title IX in the context of this growing problem. She will also provide a student’s “insider” perspective on some of the factors contributing to this epidemic as well as university initiatives to combat and ameliorate this culture. AAUW Valley Forge is the sponsor of this meeting. If you have questions, please contact Susan Norris at aauwbooks@gmail.com
