Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

["John D. Foubert" <>]

Dear Colleagues,

I am thrilled to share with you the fruits of the efforts of many of 
us here at William and Mary to create a new position of Sexual 
Assault Educator.  Dr. Donna Haygood-Jackson, our Sexual Assault 
Response Coordinator, and I have been working through all of the 
different processes needed to create this new position on our 
campus.  These efforts have now come to fruition.  This position 
opens at a very exciting time in the life of our institution.  First, 
William and Mary has a new President who has been an outspoken 
advocate of sexual assault education, and who personally created this 
new position.  Second, our Vice President for student affairs has 
said publicly to the media that he expects that more rapes will be 
reported at our institution as we increase our educational efforts 
(though of course we all hope fewer actually happen; of course having 
an administrator make such a comment to the media is gutsy).  In 
addition, we now have over 50 students involved in the two sexual 
assault peer education groups on our campus, Every Two Minutes (for 
women, and One in Four (for men).  W&M also houses the national 
offices for One in Four, which affords many opportunities for 
exciting collaborative efforts.

The person who enters this newly created position will lead the 
efforts to create a new peer advocate program and will co-advise our 
all-female peer education program, along with several other related 
duties.  The position reports to Dr. Donna Haygood Jackson, our 
Sexual Assault Response Coordinator who is a Psychologist in our 
counseling center and is a terrific person with whom to work.  Those 
interested are encouraged to apply soon.  The job posting is below.
