Ending Sexual Violence on Campus: A Holistic Approach

The Walter H. Capps Center for the Study of Ethics, Religion, and Public Life is proud to present its Spring 2023 Capps Forum on Ethics and Public Policy.

How can we address the broad range of student experiences of sexual violence, including the experiences of women, people of color, LGBTQ people, and undergraduate and graduate students? What holistic steps can campus communities take to end sexual violence? And how can we partner with community organizations off campus? Experts from UCSB will address the cultural, gendered, and legal dimensions of this pressing issue, providing a holistic, intersectional approach to ending sexual violence on campus. A Q&A will follow the panel discussion.

Panelists include UCSB faculty, students, and staff: erin Khuê Ninh, Associate Professor and Chair, Asian American Studies; Ariana Alvarez, Director & Title IX Officer, Office of Title IX and Sexual Harassment Policy Compliance; Cierra Sorin, PhD candidate, Sociology; Leila Loose, Co-Chair, Students Against Sexual Assault (SASA); and Briana Miller, Director, Campus Advocacy, Resources, & Education (CARE).
