April is Sexual Violence Awareness Month. Survivors of sexual violence include people of any age, race, gender, religion, and ability. Not only is sexual violence universally common, for college and college-age students, the statistics grow even more alarming—one in four will experience some type of sexual violence in their college years.
Saint Mary's is the only women’s college in the state of Indiana, and one of 31 in the United States. As an institution whose mission is to empower and educate women, it is our responsibility to talk about sexual violence, to raise awareness of its impact, and support women who speak up. That conversation continues on Saint Mary's College campus on April 15, 2024 for the next Raise Your Voice Symposium.
