Abstract "With national conversation turned toward sexual assault on college campuses, knowing how to identify, prevent, and address these incidents in a safe and productive way is essential for administrators and faculty. Uprooting Sexual Violence in Higher Education provides colleges and universities with a foundational understanding of 12 risk factors related to sexual assault, stalking, and intimate partner violence. By presenting a blend of theory, research, and the personal reflections of professionals 'on the front lines,' this book provides insights into the motivations, attitudes, and behaviors behind sexual assault on campus, as well as strategies for mitigating these risk factors in an effort to tailor prevention efforts. Whether you are seeking a way to navigate the recent regulations on sexual violence from the federal government or wish to safeguard the welfare of students on your campus, this book will provide the necesssary and invalable foundation you need to empower, respect, and support all students."--Back cover.
