New semester. New people. New routines.

It takes time to figure out where you fit.

What should never be part of fitting in is pressure to drink, hook up, ignore your boundaries, or do something you do not want to do.

You get to decide what feels right for you.

The Red Zone is not about telling students not to go to parties.

It is not about what someone wears.

It is not about telling people not to drink.

Sexual violence is the responsibility of the person who chooses to cause harm.

Prevention means something different.

Respect boundaries.
Pay attention when something feels off.
Step in when someone may need help.
Look out for one another.

There is a name for this time of year.

The Red Zone.

The first weeks of the fall semester are a period when college students face an increased risk of sexual violence. New people. New relationships. New social situations.

Talking about the Red Zone is not about creating fear.

It is about knowing the risk exists and thinking about how we look out for ourselves and one another.

Something does not have to be an emergency before you ask for help.

You can reach out early.

You can ask questions.

You can talk through a concern.

You can learn about your options before making any decisions.

Sometimes having more information makes the next step feel easier.

Most of us have had a moment when our intentions did not match our impact.

What happens next matters.

Listen without interrupting.

Take responsibility.

Apologize without making excuses.

Change the behavior.

Accountability is part of caring about other people.

You do not need policy language to talk with us.

You can say:

“This happened, and I don’t know what to do.”

“I’m worried about my friend.”

“I have a question.”

“Something does not feel right.”

Your own words are enough.

Hearing “no” can feel disappointing.

It still needs to be respected.

A healthy response can be simple.

“Okay.”

“Thanks for telling me.”

“I understand.”

Respect does not include guilt, pressure, anger, or punishment.

Students say they know our office exists, they know HOW to report, but they're unsure what happens AFTER they report.

Let us help!

Reaching out starts with support. You ask what you want to ask, you hear what your options are, and you decide what comes next. Nothing moves forward unless you say so.

You don't need the right words to reach out.

Not sure what happened. Not sure what to call it. A friend told you something and you don't know what to do with it.

That's enough.

Talking to us starts with support. Ask a question. Hear your options. Decide nothing at all.

Nothing moves forward unless you say so.

That's "It Matters"

Look for it around campus this fall. Scan any code you see to learn more.
