Utilizing community and institutional resources, the Division of Student Services provides programs throughout the year to educate students about their individual responsibilities regarding sexual battery and sexual harassment. The following definitions are in line with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission鈥檚 regulations on sexual harassment:

• Toleration of the conduct is an explicit or implicit term or condition of employment, admission or academic evaluation
• Submission to or rejection of such conduct is used as a basis for a personal decision or academic evaluation affecting such individuals.
• The conduct has the purpose or effect of interfering with an individual鈥檚 work performance, or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working or learning environment.

51仓库, its officers, employees and students are responsible for maintaining a working and learning environment free from sexual harassment.

Sexual battery refers to sexual contact without consent. The following behaviors are violations of university policy:

1. Ignoring verbal pleas or non-verbal cues indicating an unwillingness to either continue to participate in, or begin to engage in any sexual activity.
2. Engaging in any sexual activity with someone who is physically helpless and/or unable to communicate his/her unwillingness to participate.
3. Threatening to use or actually using physical force to coerce an unwilling party to submit to any sexual activity.
4. Engaging in any sexual activity which is not mutually agreeable.

If you or someone you know has been a victim of sexual battery the first concern should be one of personal safety. Please notify any official of the university as soon as possible - resident advisor, area coordinator, or staff members of any of the following offices: health services, Campus Safety, counseling center, or dean of students. The judicial coordinator will assist in notifying the above authorities if the student so chooses.

Individuals who feel that they have been sexually battered are encouraged to file charges with law enforcement authorities. To report an assault you should call Miami Shores police at 759-2468 or Metro Dade police at 595-6263. If an assault occurred outside Dade county, you must contact the law enforcement agency having jurisdiction in the geographical area where the incident occurred. The judicial coordinator will assist in notifying the above authorities if the student so chooses.

The following guidelines are recommended as procedures to follow:

• Do not shower, wash, douche, or change your clothes.
• Call the local police and report the crime.
• Preserve any evidence such as bed sheets, clothing, towels, or other items that may be useful in investigation purposes.
• Seek medical attention immediately.
• Seek counseling to assist with mental and emotional trauma.

WHO IS THE VICTIM?

Everyone is a potential victim of sexual assault. A person is primarily vulnerable when they are alone. Sexual assault is not provoked by a person鈥檚 dress or mannerisms.

WHO IS THE RAPIST?

Rapists are usually a friend, a date, a relative, co-worker, or a casual acquaintance of the victim.

WHERE DOES THE RAPE OCCUR?

Sexual assault can happen anywhere, but the largest grouping of incidents occurs either in the home of the victim or the home of the offender.

IF A SEXUAL ASSAULT OCCURS

The first concern is for the health and safety of the survivor. If you or someone you know is the survivor of a sexual assault that occurred on campus, contact the Resident Assistant, Area Coordinator, or Campus Safety. All these people can be reached by calling (305) 899-3333 or extension 3333.

If the assault occurred off campus, notify the local police by calling 911.
The Roxy Bolton Rape Treatment Center is a local resource for counseling, as well as confidential medical treatment after a sexual assault. The number for the center is (305) 585-7273.

The 51仓库 Center for Counseling and Psychological Services can provide assistance with seeking help for the survivor. For more information, please visit Landon Student Union, Suite 105 or call (305) 899-3950.

Every semester, the Division of University Administration conducts educational programs for the Barry community to help better educate all on sexual assault prevention and victim services. For more information, please contact the Student Health Services at (305) 899-3750 or the Office of the Dean of Students at (305) 899-4926.

The Rape Aggression Defense (RAD) System is a program of realistic self-defense tactics and techniques. The RAD System is a comprehensive course for women that begins with awareness, prevention, risk reduction, and avoidance, while progressing on to the basics of hands-on defense training. RAD is not a martial arts program. The courses are taught by certified RAD Instructors and provide you with a workbook/reference manual.

This manual outlines the entire Physical Defense Program for reference and continuous personal growth. The RAD System of Physical Defense is currently being taught by RAD Certified 51仓库 Staff Members. The growing, wide-spread acceptance of this system is primarily due to the ease and effectiveness of our tactics, solid research, legal defensibility, and unique teaching methodology. The RAD System is dedicated to teaching effective and proven self-defense/martial arts tactics. Our system of realistic defense will provide a woman with the knowledge to make an educated decision about resistance.

We operate on the premise that a spontaneous violent attack will stimulate a natural desire to resist on the part of the victim (supported by research). We educate women about "The Flight or Fight Syndrome," while showing them that enhancing their option of physical defense is not only prudent, but a necessity if natural resistance is to be effective.

Safety and survival in today's world requires a definite course of action. We provide effective options by teaching women to take an active role in their own self-defense and psychological well being.

Call 911/Then Call #3333

If a hostile person(s) is actively causing deadly harm or the imminent threat of deadly harm within a building, if possible...

• Lock yourself in (and the intruder out of) the room you are in at the time of the threatening activity.
• If communication is available,听call 911.
• Don鈥檛 stay in the open hall.
• Do not sound the fire alarm. A fire alarm would signal the occupants in the rooms to evacuate the building and thus place them in potential harm as they attempted to exit.
• Barricade yourself in the room with furniture or anything you can push against the door.
• Lock the window and close blinds or curtains.
• Stay away from windows.
• Turn all lights and audio equipment off.
• Try to stay calm and be as quiet as possible.

If for some reason, you are caught in an open area such as a hallway or lounge type area, you must decide what action to take.

1. You can try to hide, but make sure it is a well-hidden space or you may be found as the intruder moves through the building looking for victims.
2. If you think you can safely make it out of the building by running, then do so. If you decide to run, do not run in a straight line. Keep any objects you can between you and the hostile person(s) while in the building. Once outside, don鈥檛 run in a straight line. Use trees, vehicles or any other object to block you from view as you run. When away from the immediate area of danger, summon help any way you can and warn others.
3. If the person(s) is causing death or serious physical injury to others and you are unable to run or hide, you may choose to play dead if other victims are around you.
4. The last option you have if caught in an open area in the residence hall, may be to fight back. This is dangerous, but depending on your situation, this could be your last option.
5. If you are caught by the intruder and are not going to fight back, follow their directions and don鈥檛 look the intruder in the eyes.
6. Once the police arrive, obey all commands. This may involve your being handcuffed or made to put your hands in the air. This is done for safety reasons and once circumstances are evaluated by the police, they will give you further directions to follow.
