Involvement

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. This year, we are centering survivors. Check out our month of events and RSVP on Org Central.

Denim Day

Denim Day is a nationally and internationally recognized movement intended to raise awareness of and prevent sexual assault. The Denim Day campaign began in 1999 as part of an international protest of an Italian Supreme Court decision to overturn a rape conviction because the victim was wearing jeans. The Head Judge argued, "Because the victim wore very, very tight jeans, she had to help him remove them..." The judgment sparked a worldwide outcry. Denim Day is a symbol of protest against misconceptions that surround sexual assault. We encourage students, staff, faculty, and the community to wear denim and post on social media that #WildcatsWearDenim to show that violence is not tolerated and that everyone is expected to do their part in preventing it!

Denim Day will be April 29th, 2026. We invite you to join us in wearing denim to raise awareness and show support for survivors. Stop by Bosco's Plaza between 10:00AM - 2:00PM to learn prevention information and resources from campus and community partners.
