Description

As a part of our Sexual Assault Awareness Month programming, the Women's Center will be exploring the intersections of masculinity and sexual assault.
Co-facilitated by Women's Center staff member Daniel Willey and Mito Diaz-Espinoza of the Honors College, this discussion-based event will ask the questions of how masculinity contributes to rape culture and sexual assault, and how masculinity affects male survivors of sexual violence.
This event will make use of audio-visual media to guide discussion and is open to all students, faculty and staff. Please use discretion and practice self-care as this discussion will cover topics which may be triggering to some people.
