  16. There is a serious problem of some men being abusive towards women within your campus community. Agree ---- Unsure ---- Disagree

  17. Alcohol & Consent

  18. It’s OK for two intoxicated adults to engage in sexual activity. Agree----Unsure----Disagree

  19. Scenario You’re at a party where people are drinking. You notice a guy trying to convince an obviously drunk woman to go into a bedroom with him. She’s not just buzzed – she’s stumbling over her own feet. You know the woman and she seems reluctant.

  20. Train of Thought… They’re both adults… But she can’t be fully consenting if she’s drunk, can she?... I’ve heard about too many cases of sexual assault that start out like this… Could this be one in the making?...Will this guy even listen to me?....Is it part of my responsibility to provide him with some guidance?...What, if anything, am I supposed to do in a situation like this?

  21. Active Bystanders Intervene… • Directly • Indirectly • Using Distractions • By engaging Friends and/or Allies • After the Fact or Next Day
