"Yes Means Yes" event breaks down Senate bill and clears the floor of any misunderstandings

Outside the bookstore on the main walkway, Sasha Perez, Vice President for External Affairs and Advancement, teamed up with the Cal State L.A. Student Health Center for the event “Yes Means Yes: Find out what Senate Bill 967 Really Means to Students” on February 12th.

The table set up was to inform students about sex safe, sex consent and Senate Bill 967. Hand-outs were available for students to pick up and get informed. Goodie bags were also handed out which included gel lubricant and energy drinks.

Perez stated, “A lot of college campuses have students report sexual assault or domestic violence on campuses but the campuses fail to report it and it looks bad on their behalf. This bill makes sure you have consent before sexual relations with someone.”

Since campuses are not reporting the assaults or domestic violence, over 50 colleges are being investigated. Colleges can be fined 1 percent of what the government gives them if they are found in the wrong.
