Greeks Against Sexual Assault

Greeks Against Sexual Assault works towards increasing awareness, educating, and eliminating sexual assault and dating violence
from the Greek community through peer education and activism amongst sororities and fraternities nationwide.

About Greeks Against Sexual Assault

The University of California, Davis has operated the Campus Violence Prevention Program (CVPP) since 1979.

In an effort to further target the Greek community, GASA was created through CVPP in the spring of 2007. A class was developed and all Greek chapters were encouraged to have a representative enroll. The first class in the fall of 2007 had 16 representatives who were educated on the facts about sexual assault and the resources available on campus. The final project for the class was for each representative to go back and present their new knowledge to their own chapters.

Due to the enormous success of the pilot program, the class will be offered on a bi-annual basis and we look forward to sharing the program with many campuses in the coming months.

Podcast Website Evaluation

For my podcast website evaluation I looked at the American Civil Liberties Union section on Title IX to address sexual assault. I really like how this website has a summary associated with each podcast. For the users this allows ease in deciding whether or not the podcast is of interest to them. There is a related links section on the right side of the screen that suggests other pieces of the site users might be interested in. I really think video podcasts would enhance this website a lot. Overall, I think this website does a great job informing its users about the process for addressing sexual assaults.
