Hello:
UIC's Women's Leadership and Resource Center (WLRC) has been asked to provide a recommendation for a graduate student and undergraduate student to serve on a University of Illinois system-wide task force which will examine the respective and collective efforts regarding education, prevention and response to sexual harassment, sexual assault and other categories of sexual misconduct.
The task force’s charge is to:
- Facilitate a comprehensive assessment of the universities’ current policies, processes and practices;
- Identify best practices across higher education and other applicable areas;
- Ensure strong leadership engagement and commitment at all three universities and at the system levels; and
- Develop and put forward recommendations.
The Task Force will be chaired by Dr. Barbara Wilson, Executive Vice President of the University of Illinois System.
This is an excellent opportunity to learn about what is happening across the University of Illinois system, and to have input in shaping how the various campuses respond to sexual violence.
If you are interested in having your name put forward for this task force, please email me directly at ndab1@uic.edu. Thank you!
Best,
Natalie Bennett
