SOC 300E - Sexual Violence on Campus

Institution:

Westminster College (Salt Lake City)

Subject:

Sociology

Description:

From the #MeToo movement to the Trump administration's attack on protections for college victims of sexual assault, campus sexual violence-how it is perpetrated, how it is experienced, and how we respond to it-is changing rapidly. This course will expose students to the most up-to-date science about college sexual assault and allow students to make a scientific contribution of their own on the subject. Students will work as part of a research team conducting an in-depth study on how a local university responds to reports of sexual assault. Students who take this course will gain research experience, build expertise on one of today's most challenging social issues, and expand their sociological imaginations. Students must apply to take this course. Anyone interested must submit a cover letter, a digital copy of their unofficial transcript, a resume/CV, and a letter of recommendation from a faculty member or relevant community leader. All application materials may be submitted to nbedera@umich.edu. Applications are due March 20th.
