She Asked For It! Why We Like To Judge Rape Victims
Monday, October 15th * 5:30pm-7:30pm
University of Washington, Kane Hall, Room 120
Rape is a crime that is no stranger to college campuses and other communities around the country. Commonly held beliefs about victims, offenders and the meaning of consent all play important roles in how rape cases are perceived and handled. This interactive and high-spirited lecture will examine the influences at work on children, college students, and other members of our community as they consider the question of rape and what it means. Be prepared to challenge your thinking!
