Theatre of Silence
A guerilla theatre piece put on in the Worner student center drew attention to the silence around issues of sexual assault, homophobia, racism, and harassment. 43 students sat silently for 30 minutes on the steps with masking tape over their mouths. Each piece of masking tape had a word or a phrase, such as “She wanted it,” or “Get her drunk” written on it.

Welcome
The Sexual Assault Response & Prevention (SARP) Program was created in 2004 as a response to student, faculty, and staff perceptions and needs. We provide confidential support, information, and referrals to survivors and others whose lives have been affected by sexual violence and misconduct. We believe that sexual violence is a community problem that will only be solved through community effort. Our vision is to help create an environment where sexual and interpersonal violence are not tolerated, and we strive to reduce the incidents and consequences of sexual misconduct on the Colorado College campus through education, outreach, dialogue, and supportive services.
