Subject: mandated assault training

Hi Joann,
Here at University of North Carolina Wilmington, we've been doing a mandated 
90 minute safety session with emphasis on sexual assault and relationship 
abuse and other information on stalking, AOD use.  Our sessions are currently 
mandated for all incoming first year students and are gender-specific.  The 
Women's session is led by women from CARE, Substance Abuse prevention and a 
University Police investigator--all women.  The Men's session is led by men 
from CARE, Residence Life and a University Police investigator--all men.  
Both sessions are interactive with role-players and discussion.  There is 
also a mandated "booster" session for all athletes--new or ongoing 
students--each year.

Also, we have had mandated sessions for all Residence Assistants (2 sessions) 
and Orientation Leaders (1 session) for many years.

We have a new Dept. of Justice Violence Against Women Campus Grant with which 
we will enlarge the mandated audience to all new students, including transfer 
and graduate students. We may also be able to extend mandated sessions to 
other student orgs.

Hope this is helpful,
