This is part of The Red Zone Awareness Campaign, which lasts from six to eight weeks at the beginning of each year. The campaign helps to spread awareness of dat- ing violence that happens all around the world. Its cause is to spread the concepts of healthy relationships, along with a community in which students can feel safe and respected. The Red Zone Aware- ness Campaign is also for the students in their first and second years, which are at higher risk of unwanted sexual experiences. Campaigns are designated to edu- cate students on how to protect themselves and others from this violence. We want to make sure students know that Western Carolina Uni- versity does not tolerate violence, said Sarah Carter, associate director of Resource Services. During these weeks, he Night on Sept. 18 The short red flags have appeared around campus to denote a red zone. the Resident Student Association (RSA), along with other stu- dent organizations and | departments, help out with many events that will lead up to the month of October. A well-known event called Take Back the Night will take place during these weeks. Take Back the Night is actually an interna- tional event in which campuses across the world will participate. Tts a space where we can talk about sexual violence and the journey of becoming a survivor for a victim, and building a community of respect among students, said Carter. However, this years event will be different. There will be no tra- ditional candle visual that goes along with the march, but there will still be amarch and many dif- ferent activities planned throughout the night for those who come out for it.

Tt is a good opportunity for students to explore these issues that we at WCU want to builda community of respect and support, said Carter.
