November Faculty Conversation: Responding to Sexual Harassment at Service Sites

Wednesday, November 14th, Gelman Library Room 101

We can always learn and develop our knowledge to prevent sexual harassment from arising in any kind of work or social setting. Unfortunately, the University encounters alarming incidents of service learning students receiving unwanted advances from the clients of community organizations the students were serving with. The context of the service relationship makes the problem of sexual harassment particularly challenging. How do we prepare our students and how do we respond?

Christina Franzino, Assistant Director for Sexual Assault Prevention and Response, facilitated the conversation in GW’s Title IX Office.

Please encourage colleagues to join in on future conversations and encourage open, ongoing discussions about how to build a safe space for everyone, regardless of their role.

Please contact titleix@gwu.edu with any concerns or refer to Title IX's training calendar and other resources on their website to find more information about sexual assault, harassment, and prevention efforts.
