New stuff on the SAFER site

Posted on by

Some new stuff to check out on the SAFER website:

Our 2006-2007 annual report is now available. Is your name on the donor list? It could be!

Info about the upcoming Student Organizing Forum for Sexual Assault Policy Reform. This is a New York event, but the idea is that it will serve as a pilot for other regional forums in the future. Want to bring a training to your area? Just ask! You can also be a sponsor of the forum, either by donating, or by placing an ad in the participant packs.

Our guide for students, Change Happens, has been newly updated and expanded. Request yours today!

We need an intern! Come work in our Brooklyn office, where the work is hard, but shoes are optional.

Attention Indiana University-Bloomington area students

Posted on by

I got a call today from the mother of a Indiana University-Bloomington student who was raped recently. She’s trying to spread the word about what happened to her daughter and the University’s inadequate and irresponsible response. If you’re an IU student, I encourage you to get in touch with her. Parents and students together can accomplish more than either alone. Here’s her flyer.

Does it get any worse than this?

So bad. So very very bad. Female airman charged after refusing to testify in her own rape case

Let’s get this straight—who allegedly committed a crime here? The woman raped by three people, or the alleged rapists? Apparently, the air force thinks it’s the rape victim, and is having the alleged rapists testify against her.

Do you ever feel like you’re living in bizarro world?

I’d like to hear from students who’ve had any experience of pressing charges (either criminally or through a campus judicial system) and been charged themselves. Just so I can get even angrier than I already am.
Write your congressperson or senator today.
