Violence Against Women Act (VAWA)

In March 2013, the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act (VAWA) was signed, which focuses on improving the criminal justice response to violence against women.  This includes improved accountability for colleges to educate students and prevent gender-based violence.  Additional rights were provided to campus victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking.

In 2013, the Campus SaVE Act was added to VAWA as an amendment, and it seeks to address the violence women face on campus.  The act covers domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking.  It requires incidents to be disclosed in the annual 鈥淐lery鈥� campus crime statistic reports; clarifies minimum standards for institutional disciplinary procedures; instructs colleges and universities to provide programming for students and employees; and establishes collaboration between the U.S. Departments of Justice, Education, and Health and Human Services to collect and disseminate best practices for preventing and responding to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. More information on the Campus SaVE Act is available through Safe Colleges Training.

 

Title IX is a federal law that prohibits sex discrimination and sexual harassment by institutions of higher education that receive federal financial aid.  (See 20 U.S.C. 搂 1681.)  Each institution must maintain a grievance process that is prompt, equitable, and impartial.   Title IX also requires each institution to appoint one or more 鈥淭itle IX Coordinators鈥� to coordinate compliance with the statute.   Title IX is enforced by the Office for Civil Rights of the U.S. Department of Education.   More information on Title IX is available through Safe Colleges Training

麻豆色情片 will present awareness programs for new students and new employees, in addition to on-going awareness campaigns each academic year related to the awareness of sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, and stalking for all students and staff.

Definition of Consent

Some of the offenses listed below turn on whether the victim has given consent for the activity.  鈥淐onsent鈥� is the affirmative, unambiguous, and voluntary agreement to engage in a specific sexual activity during a sexual encounter.  Consent is communicated through mutually understandable words or actions that indicate willingness by all of the involved parties to engage in the same sexual activity, at the same time, and in the same way.  Consent may be given verbally; however, consent (or lack of consent) also may be expressed through gestures and body language.  Consent cannot be freely given if the person鈥檚 ability to understand and give consent is impaired. Examples of those who are impaired and therefore cannot give consent include but are not limited to:

鈥� Any person who is incapacitated due to the use of alcohol and/or other drugs.
鈥� Any person who is asleep or unconscious or for any reason is physically incapacitated.
鈥� Any person who is mentally impaired or has a mental disability.
鈥� Any person younger than 17 years old.
鈥� Any person who has been subjected to the explicit or implicit use of force, coercion, threats and/or intimidation.

Silence does not equal consent.  Additionally, consent to one form of sexual activity does not necessarily imply consent to other forms of sexual activity.  Similarly, a prior sexual history or dating history between the participants does not constitute consent.  Further, any party has the right to change his or her mind and withdraw consent at any time through
