Keeping Bobcats Informed, April 5, 2023
Wednesday, April 5, 2023
Bobcat Parents and Families,
Given that April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month, it is an appropriate time to engage in discussions with your student about sexual expectations, consent and alcohol, and sexual violence on college campuses. You should familiarize yourself and your student with the and available to survivors of sexual assault, dating or domestic violence, and stalking. While I recognize these are difficult conversations to have, OHIO's shares a for how to initiate these discussions.
We take pride in our students, faculty, staff, and programs that continue to serve as a model for combating rape culture on college campuses. You too can help us keep Bobcats safe and the resources they need to begin recovery.
Best,
Kathy
