A practical guide to prevention of and response to sexual assault
on college campuses, this invaluable resource will help ensure
Title IX compliance-and can also help reduce the incidence of these
all-too-prevalent events. The frequency of sexual assault on
college campuses is startlingly high. Notwithstanding this fact,
most campus officials are not trained in the psychology of the
victimization process, while most students are not aware of their
reporting options. A practical guide to sexual assault at colleges
and universities, this book integrates theories and empirical
research with information about legislation and techniques to help
college administrators deal with-and prevent-these disturbing
offenses. The work brings together a team of experts who discuss
various types of assault, including rape, stalking, intimate
partner violence, and sexual harassment, and detail the legal,
educational, and federal responses to such events on college
campuses. They address federal and state laws, including new bills
being proposed in Congress, and present research on the physical
and psychological dimensions of sexual assault. Perhaps most
important, the book shows how human resource techniques and
principles can be used to establish preventative measures and to
respond appropriately when sexual assault does occur. Students'
accounts of prevention training and education enhance the scholarly
and legal contributions to this important-and timely-volume.
Explores the psychological dimensions of campus sexual assault as
it affects emotional health, physical health, career development,
and self-concept Integrates three main perspectives often lacking
in other books on the topic-legal, social science, and human
resource management Includes first-person experiences through
interviews with students, scholars, and attorneys Offers practical
recommendations for preventative approaches as well as
recommendations for investigation procedures Provides sample
policies and training programs
