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

[Gillian Kaag <>]

Hello Everyone,

 

I am wondering if you can share with me what the name of your office/program is that is dedicated to the prevention of/response to gender-based violence.  Along with this, I am wondering how effective the name has been and how students have responded to your office/program’s name. 

 

We are exploring new names for our office and are exploring name options that would ideally be inviting and informative.  Feedback from the students suggests that they are turned off by titles that include the words:  “violence,” “sexual assault,” or “rape.”  I look forward to any information/feedback you can share with me. 

 

Thanks!

Gillian
