In this session we will explore the ways different cultural perspectives may impact campus climate and inform attitudes about sexual violence prevention and reporting.  We will also discuss the various resources available to campus administrators, faculty, staff and students to increase cultural competencies and raise awareness about the impact the broader culture has in shaping our perspectives, attitudes and beliefs surrounding sexual assault and violence against women and men on campus.
