April is less than a month away. It's a time for Spring, new beginnings, and change. What better time to plant the seeds of change on campus?

April is also Sexual Assault Awareness Month. It's important for the entire campus to get involved in putting a stop to assault on campus. We need to be equipped with an awareness of not only what sexual assault is, but how it affects survivors, and what we all can do to provide them with a supportive network. Sexual Assault Prevention starts with an informed mindset. Awareness plants the seeds for long term prevention on campus.

Every individual can be an agent of change, not just in April, but in every conversation, question, action and mindset.

Here are five ways anyone can take part in Sexual Assault Awareness (Every)Month:

1. Define the terms

Students are often unaware of what crosses the line between healthy relationships and harassment or abuse. With fear and stigma prevalent in the college community, many crimes go unreported. One out of every six American women and one in 33 American men has been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime. Research shows that 90 percent of campus rapists are repeat offenders, averaging nearly six victims each who often go undetected. Learn about what "healthy consent" means. What is the definition of "assault" on campus. What is Title IX? Where do you report a case of assault? Get informed n your own campus, and once you do, spread the word.
