Consent & Healthy Relationships
Resources Regarding Consent, Boundaries and Healthy Relationships.
Sophomores and juniors attended a performance of Speak About It this week. The program of skits and monologues performed by recent college graduates examined consent, boundaries, and healthy relationships. The hope of the performance and the small group student discussions that followed was to provide BBA students with the language, tools, and resources essential to establishing healthy relationships. This document is a collection of resources intended to offer further education to students regarding being an active bystander and taking an active role in preventing sexual assault.

Wrecked by Maria Padian
Missoula by Jon Krakauer
Jon Krakauer, as usual, has produced a well researched, very readable book. The statistics he shares are shocking. It should be noted that the book includes graphic content. Krakauer's treatment of the subject of sexual assault, specifically within a university setting, is thought provoking and haunting. ---Mrs. Putney
