Tonight WMU students will come together to create support cards for survivors. We will use art to express our emotions related to systemic sexual and gender-based violence, survivorhood, and healing. These cards will be collected and displayed in the FIRE Place and online!

We’ve talked a lot about what consent does look like, but what about what it doesn’t look like? Stay in tune with your surroundings and recognize how you or others around you are feeling. #WeChooseConsent #Consent

[We Choose @WMUwechoose]

Don’t let consent confuse you. It’s a simple statement that we can all do, we just need to practice it! Keep these words in the back of your mind when thinking about consent, asking or receiving it. Let’s normalize the conversation 🤩 #consent #WeChooseConsent

Don’t get lost in the world of online dating. Remember, even if you are looking for a hookup, swiping right is not consent. Feelings can change in the moment so always check in with someone before engaging in sexual activity. #WeChooseConsent

[We Choose @WMUwechoose]

YOU have the opportunity to use your voice during the review of WMU’s Sexual and Gender-Based Misconduct Policy. This is a great time to educate yourself and provide input on what you feel will help benefit the wellbeing of our campus. It’s time to be apart of the change.

The first step is believing the survivor. Although it may be difficult to hear someone’s story, react with compassion and a calm response. They have gone through enough emotions, comfort them. Listen to them. #WeChooseToListen #WeChoose #Believe #listen #support

[We Choose @WMUwechoose]

Listening to someone who speaks out about their experiences is one of the most important things you can do. This is the type of support that is welcomed during these times. Take a step back and listen. #WeChooseToListen #Listen #Support #WMU

Our final healthy relationship key is being open to learning! This means learning more about the person you have a relationship with, relationships in general, and learning more about yourself. What does a healthy relationship look like to you? https://t.co/inUwDCjY1d
