Sexual assaults do happen at Iowa State in residence halls, Greek houses and off-campus housing. Alcohol plays a large factor in many acquaintance rapes, and Iowa State is no exception. During the 2000 Sexual Assault Awareness Month there will be many activities focusing on sexual assault education, prevention and awareness. During April, we encourage all individuals to wear white ribbons to signify their support in ending sexual violence. Sexual assault is a devastating crime that affects everyone whether you or someone you know is a survivor.
