Interest in Sexual Misconduct Course?
I am an attorney who represents students in sexual misconduct, Title IX, and related disciplinary matters in colleges and universities. Over the past few years, I've given "Safe Sex and Student Conduct" presentations to a bunch of local fraternities.
The presentation covers how Title IX works, how university policies differ from state criminal laws, and how schools typically define concepts like consent, stalking, harassment, and sexual misconduct. I also discuss go over a few hypothetical scenarios, including what students should and should not do if they are accused or a victim.
The feedback has generally been positive, and students seem to find it practical and more useful than they expected. Plus, I can now say that I have said the word "penetration" in a frat house over 100 times.
I've been considering turning the presentation into an online course and would love some honest feedback:
- Is this something y'all would actually watch?
- Would chapters be interested in showing it as part of risk management or new member education?
- Would anyone pay for it, or would it need to be free?
- For those involved in fraternity leadership, what's the best way to reach chapters these days? I've typically emailed chapter presidents when I could find contact information online, but I'm curious whether there's a better approach.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts!
