The\u00a0Campus Prevention Network (CPN)\u00a0recently ranked the University\u2019s sexual assault prevention efforts in the \u201cAdvanced\u201d category for its programming, critical processes, and institutionalization. The Campus Prevention Network supports large college campuses across the United States in their efforts to address health and safety challenges, including sexual assault.<\/p>\n
The rating was part of CPN\u2019s Sexual Assault Diagnostic Inventory, which is a comprehensive 80-item assessment of an institution\u2019s sexual assault prevention efforts and is meant to serve as a roadmap to guide progress in sexual assault prevention at an institution. Participating schools are designated as Emerging, Developing, Proficient, or Advanced.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Title IX Office in coordination with many departments and dedicated staff members throughout the University are committed to preventing sexual assault, intimate partner violence, sexual harassment and stalking in our community,\u201d said Morgan Levy, Title IX Coordinator and director of University Student Services coordination. \u201cThrough programming and education\u2014including engaging in difficult topics with clarity and honesty\u2014we are determined to reduce instances of sexual misconduct in our community while informing individuals of the University\u2019s high standards for treating people with respect and dignity.\u201d<\/p>\n
The University received particularly high marks in the programming area of the assessment. T Street, assistant director for educational outreach, joined the Title IX Office this summer from the Department of Public Safety and has since implemented several meaningful sexual misconduct prevention programs. They began in this new role by facilitating prevention training sessions for 1,350 first-year students in the College, and engaging participants in real bystander intervention roles and techniques.<\/p>\n
