The Higher Education Center is pleased to make the following
announcements:

1) NSVRC Campus Sexual Violence Survey

The National Sexual Violence Resource Center (NSVRC) is pleased to
announce that the 2010 Sexual Assault Awareness Month campaign will
focus on campus communities. As part of their goal to best meet the
needs of individuals and organizations working to prevent sexual
violence on campuses, the NSVRC has created an online survey to assess
the work being done at colleges and universities around this issue.

Individuals working with college students in any capacity through
anti-sexual violence work (even those not employed by a college or
university) are invited to take part in this survey. The goal is to
collect information on experiences doing this work to better inform the
resources and tools NSVRC will provide as part of the 2010 Sexual
Assault Awareness Month campaign.
