Hello all,

I am trying to find a program geared toward educating first year students 
about rape education and prevention.  We currently use a play which ends with 
a simulated rape and many of the faculty (including me) believe it is 
problematic on many levels and it seems that the students are more 
entertained by it than educated.  It uses a lot of sexist jokes without, in 
my opinion, clearly showing how that sexism contributes to the problem.  This 
should be a program that can be presented during orientation weekend or in 
the first week of classes.  Any suggestions?

Thanks.
