campus sexual assault

An Italian Supreme Court case in the 90s sparked international outrage when a judge didn’t convict a perpetrator in an assault case – on the premise that the survivor’s jeans were too tight. That outrage turned into Denim Day, an annual day of action that raises awareness around sexual assault and pushes back against victim-blaming.On April 24, University of Wyoming (UW) community members are invited to wear denim to show their solidarity for survivors of sexual assault. April is also Sexual Assault Awareness Month.
