Abstract
The “It’s On Us” campaign was launched in 2014 by the White House in an effort to prevent sexual assault on college campuses by asking students to change their own attitudes and practice bystander intervention.
Bystander Intervention refers to noticing when a sexual assault is about to occur and stepping in to stop it.
Please join us the week of October 24-26 for the following events:
Tuesday, Oct 24: Commit to Consent Rally at the RU Rotunda from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.

Wednesday, Oct 25: Guest Speaker, Don McPherson in the RU Ballroom at 7 p.m.
