Matt Kimble, one of the authors of that research, is a professor here at 
Middlebury if anyone wishes to follow up with him. He's on leave this year 
but can certainly be contacted by email.

Subject: RE: Red Zone Statistics/Freshman

Hi all,

The Red Zone period is less about reporting and more about prevalence.  Of 
course, reporting is far lower than prevalence, even on campuses that have 
proactively worked to increase the number of students coming forward.

For campus-specific data, I would suggest looking at your AlcoholEdu metrics, 
if you use AlcoholEdu or a similar program. They tend to ask about sexual 
touching without consent at the six week mark, which would likely give you 
high numbers for those first year students (particularly if you stratify 
females), based on my consultation with other campuses.  As this is a 
requirement on many college campuses for first year students to register, you 
tend to have a very high response rate.

I would suggest reading Flack et al's "The Red Zone: Temporal Risk for 
Unwanted Sex Among College Students," published in 2008 in the Journal of 
Interpersonal Violence, Kimble et al "Risk of Unwanted Sex for College Women: 
Evidence for the Red Zone, published in 2008 in the Journal of American 
College Health, as they specifically refer to the red zone phenomenon.

My best,
LB

There aren't any. It's an anecdote that took on empirical proportions. For 
most campuses September and April see spikes in reporting. Check your clery 
stats for clusters of reporting going back a number of years and a trend 
might emerge.

Colleagues,

We are preparing the way for Bystander Intervention training and I wanted to 
insert information about the Red Zone/Freshman. I have searched high and low 
on the Internet and my collected literature and although I find assertions 
everywhere about the increased likelihood of sexual assault during the Red 
Zone, I cannot find the statistics on just how much more elevated the risk is 
or how often it occurs during the Red Zone. Any guidance on where I can find 
this would be greatly appreciated, because I want to make sure the Freshman 
realize how “real” the risk of sexual assault is and how applicable their 
training could be.
