The events aim to educate students how to prevent sexual violence and advocate for those who have been impacted by providing connections to resources, dialogue and information. These events will also offer an opportunity for students to learn about topics such as consent, healthy relationships and dating.<\/p>\n

“Our fourth annual Take Back the Night event, along with some exciting new events this year, will make for a powerful week of education and advocacy,” said Lisa Thomas, NMC Dean of Students. “Please join us in standing against sexual assault and empowering our students and community alike in being a safe and respectful place for all.”<\/p>\n
