Demand the University of Cincinnati Uphold Survivors' Civil Rights
On August 14th, amidst a global pandemic, the University of Cincinnati’s Office of Gender Equity & Inclusion released their new policies and procedures (Title IX Sexual Harassment Policy & Sex- and/or Gender-Based Misconduct Policy and Procedure) following DeVos’ Final Rule. While the University of Cincinnati must legally follow DeVos’ rule -- or risk losing federal funding -- they have discretion on how multiple sections of the rule are implemented. UC did not commit to taking sexual violence seriously by choosing the options that create the least harm for student survivors.
With a federal government and the University of Cincinnati failing students, it is up to us to continue our leadership in defending our education and civil rights. Survivors' lives are on the line. This fight is far from over and we will not back down. Learn more about our campaign here.

Who are we?Students for Survivors is a student-led movement at the University of Cincinnati dedicated to supporting survivors of sexual assault regardless of race, class, gender, sexuality, religion, or ability.
Sexual assault occurs at an alarming rate on college campuses. We hope to educate the UC community by establishing a common understanding of sexual assault and consent, support individual survivors of sexual assault regardless of the recency or degree of assault, and work for institutional change at UC. Survivors: we believe you, we support you, and we will uphold your truth. |
