SEX SIGNALS: SEXUAL ASSAULT AWARENESS ON CAMPUS 

Join us Oct. 13 for Sex Signals, a provocative, in-your-face look at issues surrounding dating, sex, and date rape on college campuses. Sex Signals takes an unorthodox, humor-facilitated and inclusive approach to examining our culture, sex, and prevention strategies like bystander intervention. It examines what roles culture and privilege play in justifying unhealthy and dangerous beliefs about what is acceptable social and sexual behavior. (Content warning: Sexual violence will be discussed in this program.)
