Understand what consent means in the KU community
Consent continues to be a challenging issue in sexual assault cases across campus, especially when alcohol is involved. As part of Sexual Assault Awareness Month at KU, today is Consent Day. Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to wear their Consent Day T-shirts to raise awareness and to encourage a dialogue on this important topic.
Do you know what the University’s consent policy is? What does consent look like? The university’s definition of consent can be found online.
The university has an entire webpage dedicated to consent and understanding consent. If it’s not clear, it’s not consent!
