Students have

split up into committees focusing on a variety of topics and tasks:

The sign committee

makes signs and posters with information about rape and abusive relationships;

a ribbon group will give ribbons to faculty and students to symbolize

the awareness of violence; another group will wear red shirts, with a

white cutout hand on one of 18 to symbolize the ratio of teens who are

abused; a group of speakers will visit other classes to pass on the information

they have learned and suggest ways to avoid abusive situations; a group

will pass out stickers to every 18th student, again to represent the ratio

of abused and abusive teens; a group will wear bruise makeup using the

1:18 ratio.

Speakers from

the Southern Crescent Sexual Assault Center also will speak to selected

classes.
