For the past three years we have studied the contacts our peer advocates have during the school year. Over this period our advocates had over 670 contacts with students. Of those that were assaulted during the school year we found the majority of assaults reported to the advocates (58%) occurred during the first two months of the freshman college experience. The prime reason for this is that freshman are much more vulnerable.

I wonder whether there are more reports to the school during the first two
months of the freshman year because there are actually more assaults
happening--an alternate explanation could be that freshmen trust the
school more than students who have been there for a while, and think the
school will help them, while older students tend to be disillusioned about
this and don't report.  Another possibility could be that freshmen are
reporting to peer advocates because they haven't yet developed any close
friendships at school.  After a year, people are more likely to have a
friend at school that they feel comfortable talking to.  Just a thought...

Ashley Burczak

For the past three years we have studied the contacts our peer advocates
have during the school year.  Over this period our advocates had over
670 contacts with students.  Of those that were assaulted during the

I've just spent quite a bit of time developing clear, compelling,
and concise text for a small ad space on a table tent that will sit
on all the cafeteria tables in our Residence Halls during the month
of September.   The simple message in this ad is, if you are
sexually assaulted, reach out for help.

It occurred to me that many of us develop messages and language for
ads, flyers, and posters.  Perhaps we could share our creations with
each other so that we can all benefit from the collective wisdom and
creativity of all of our programs.  I find this kind of writing the
most difficult.  Writing a "long" brochure is far easier.   With an
ad or a flyer or poster that is intended to send a message (and not
simply describe services), both the message itself and how it is
expressed matters.  And every word counts.

So I invite you to share with listserv members the messages and
language you have developed for print ads, flyers, and posters.   By
"message" I mean, for example:
  *  encouraging survivors to get help
  *  defining sexual assault or sexual misconduct in ways that
students understand
  *  messages related to risk reduction

Here is what I have come up with for this small tablel tent ad:

Tell someone .  .  .
Every year, thousands of college women and men are sexually assaulted.
Most tell no one and many suffer personally and academically. Tell someone . . . No matter what, it's not your fault.
Healing is possible and help is available.
Contact  Linda Lumley, WMU Office of
Health Promotion & Education, 387-2995.
Confidential support, information, and
Assistance.

Tell Someone .  .  .
if someone forced you to have sex against your will.
No matter what, it's not your fault.
A sexual assault can be a trauma that
keeps on hurting. But healing is possible, and help is available. Contact Linda Lumley, office of
Health Promotion & Education
387-2995.  Confidential support,
information, and assistance.

Tell Someone .  .  .
If someone had sex with you against
your will. If it's causing you pain and you can't
forget it.
Healing is possible, and help is available. Contact Linda Lumley, WMU Office of
Health Promotion & Education,
387-2995. Confidential support, information, and assistance.

Ashley;

I totally agree with your alternative interpretation of this data -- or
some combination of the possible interpretations.

It may also be that as students get more involved in campus life, and
get more influenced by other students' behaviors and attitudes, that
their defintion of abuse and rape changes meaning that what they might
define as rape or abuse within their 1st 2 months are not defined as
rape or abuse later on...

I think Mr. Thomson's survey at Virginia is indicative of what we all have
seen anecdotally and repeatedly:  rape in the first months of the freshman
year is common.  The reasons for this are that freshman girls arrive on
campus na=EFve and not knowing their limits with regard to alcohol.  For this
reason they may be targeted more frequently.  Education (before they get to
college) is essential.
