The charge of this committee was to examine three specific areas regarding sexual harassment and rape prevention:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Education:<\/strong> How should the University better inform students about issues?<\/li>\n<li><strong>Programming: <\/strong>What activities and events help engage the campus community in discussions regarding discrimination, harassment and sexual misconduct?<\/li>\n<li><strong>Resources:<\/strong> What resources should the university make available?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Today, this committee is comprised of staff, students, faculty and Greenville community members committed to educating our campus community about discrimination, harassment and sexual misconduct and preventing such incidents from occurring. Whatever our level of experience, we will share in the satisfaction of planning programs and special events, educating the campus community about resources, and supporting survivors of sexual misconduct. This committee has representatives from a diverse segment of student organizations, academic and administrative departments.<\/p>\n<h2>2019-20 Committee Members<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Co-Chairs<\/strong><br \/>\nConnie Carson, Vice President for Student Life<br \/>\nKristen Irwin, Assistant Director for Career Communities, Malone Center for Career Engagement<\/p>\n<p><strong>Faculty<\/strong><br \/>\nErik Anderson, Philosophy (Chair)<br \/>\nScott Henderson, Education (Ex-Officio)<br \/>\nChristopher Manganaro, ROTC<br \/>\nJeff Michno, Spanish<br \/>\nMarian Strobel, History<br \/>\nLynne Shackelford, English<\/p>\n<p><strong>Greenville Community Partners<\/strong><br \/>\nTrina Sherman, Julie Valentine Center<\/p>\n<p><strong>Staff<br \/>\n<\/strong>Ashley Baudouin, Associate Director of Fraternity and Sorority Life, Student Life<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>Stephanie Boyd, Assistant Dean of Students \/ Alcohol and Drug Education Coordinator, Student Life<br \/>\nKristin Davis, Employee Relations Manager, Human Resources<br \/>\nStephanie Hesbacher, Assistant Director of South Housing, Housing &amp; Residence Life<br \/>\nSheryl Higgins, Furman Police Captain (Alternate)<br \/>\nKristin Irwin, Assistant Director for Career Communities, Malone Center for Career Engagement<br \/>\nJohn Milby, Chief, University Police<br \/>\nMelissa Nichols, Title IX &amp; ADA Coordinator<br \/>\nEmily Shaffer, Health Promotions Fellow, Student Life<br \/>\nRachael Simpson, Assistant Athletics Director for Compliance and Student-Athlete Development<br \/>\nElaine Smith, Counselor, Counseling Services at the Trone Center for Mental Fitness<br \/>\nRev.
