Working Together to Put Ideas Into Action.

Gender violence on college campuses has been big news recently, while alcohol abuse, hazing, hate crimes, rioting and other forms of violence in college settings also continue to make headlines. When violence hits close to home, campus personnel must react quickly and appropriately, often with little time for planning. It’s never easy to deal with, but efforts made ahead of time for the eventuality can help college communities respond more efficiently and quickly. That’s why Violence Goes to College offers an interdisciplinary approach, helping a wide range of campus departments, police, advocacy groups, government agencies, parents, student leaders and media learn the best practices.
