Student Programming Board On a large state university campus the two most over arching student organizations will be the Student Government and the Student Activities Board. We will use a collaboration between the two to increase the education of the entire campus. State University

Idea Creation of a campus wide ENDREDZONE Initiative: Student Government would market a month long awareness program for the campus stories from anonymous students what can be done how to report and tips to stay safe State University

Student Activities Board would kick off the month with a large scale event featuring a prominent public figure with a story on the issue, motivational speaker against sexual violence. Use this event to boost awareness and advertisement for the ENDREDZONE month State University

Student Forum Campus culture comes from the individuals who are currently at the institution By creating a safe atmosphere where campus leaders can discuss these topics, students will buy into the initiative. More effective than random speakers Invite all campus RSOs to enter a participant State University

Example: Greek Life The ENDREDZONE month would be marketed heavily inside the Greek community to: Dedicate service hours to the case Participate in a student forum designed as a event during the month to discuss personal topics related to sexual awareness (stronger message when it comes from peers) Fundraise for campus partners that help fight sexual violence State University

Use Resources and Strengths! Students at a small school are connected and involved in the everyday life of the university-use this! Goal Goal : Full acceptance from the student population Small Private College

ENDREDZONE Field Day Dedicate a day to competition and fun that encourages students to learn and speak out against sexual violence: Create teams through registered student organizations, residence halls and Greekchapters. Create events Mix Events with Speakers and media coverage Market as a day dedicated to raising awareness against sexual violence Small Private College

Invite community and campus partners to set up booths and displays across campus All proceeds go to a sexual violence prevention agency OR all money goes toward the citation of a anti-sexual violence student group being brought to the campus Small Private College

Organizations Involved Greek Life Student Government RSOs Campus Publications Administration ETC Day would be dedicated to creating a Sexual Awareness campaign or student group or community partner. Small Private College

Formation of a Student Group Community college students do not have the schedules of a normal college student, so to make an effective campus change you must work around this. Create a University operated student group (by invitation or application) Community College

What it will do This student group, ENDREDZONE, will be student ran and charged with working with community partners to bring information into the college atmosphere. - This gives students a chance to get involved and encourages them to work outside of the institution Community College

Goal Raise awareness Create community partners Gain information for individuals who have suffered from this before Partner with neighboring institutions to bring in professors/speakers Community College
