It is not as black and white as going into a dark alley. It is what happens day to day, socializing, at parties, while dating and how things can just unravel." Sheridan already has a process for reporting incidents, working with its security team and local police. The Student Code of Conduct states that sexual assault and sexual violence are unacceptable and related procedures define sexual assault and outline the responsibilities of those at Sheridan to support students. Victim Policy will provide clear definition of sexual assault supports include counselling. Halton police investigated five sexual assaults that took place in 2014 and 2013 on a trail near Sheridan College. In response, Sheridan College officials and Halton police held a public forum and the college stepped up security, including using an ATV to patrol a wooded area. The cases remain open. "We have strong supports in place to support our students, but I hope this will make it more clear where you can get help," said LucidoBezely. "Just as importantly, I hope that we can have an opportunity to clearly learn and eliminate myths around what is sexual assault An ATV was used to patrol the trails near Sheridan College after a spate of sexual assaults last year. | photo courtesy Sheridan Sun and appropriate behaviour, and appropriate consent. We all play a role in creating a safe learning environment and an environment of respect." Lucido-Bezely is now working with a steering group at Sheridan, including student services staff, the student union and other members of the campus community to obtain feedback on the policy. Over the next six months, the group will deliver programs to engage students, raise awareness on gender diversity and equality issues and educate about consent. The initiatives will include workshops, social media and marketing campaigns.
