Day to End Rape Culture

Thursday, April 3, 2025, 10am – 2pm, location is TBD

Day to End Rape Culture (DERC) is an expo-style event designed to educate our community about various elements of rape culture and ways to address them in their day-to-day lives. What is rape culture? Rape Culture is an environment in which sexual violence is prevalent and normalized/excused by the media, popular culture and daily interactions. Rape culture perpetuates power-based personal violence in our community by creating and reinforcing norms that tell us these acts of violence are acceptable. Leading up to DERC, various students, organizations, and support resources create interactive presentations on one aspect of rape culture and facilitate rich discussions with their peers. Those who attend DERC can expect to leave with a wealth of new information and skills to challenge and prevent violence in their communities.
