EVERY YEAR more than half a million college students are targets of
bias-driven slurs or physical assaults.
EVERY DAY at least one hate crime occurs on a college campus.
EVERY MINUTE a college student somewhere sees or hears racist,
sexist, homophobic or otherwise biased words or images.(www.tolerance.org/campus)
GENIUS is a national campaign for the inclusion of “gender
identity and expression” in non-discrimination policies and practices of
colleges and universities. Students are taking action against
gender-based harassment by raising campus awareness, educating school administrators, and demanding real change
at the institutional level. The struggle to change policies is
essential for the creation of safer learning environments where all
youth are free to express themselves without fear or repercussion. Register today! You have the power -- speak out and act up!! |
