Start by Believing Day

Special Event

Visit a pledge booth across the state on this day to learn how to respond to a survivor when they disclose their experience to you. Then, take the pledge to start by believing; making a personal commitment to respond to a survivor with belief and empathy, support that survivor on their road to justice and healing, and to end the silence and stop the cycle of violence within our communities. You can also take the pledge online throughout the month at startbybelieving.usu.edu and be sure to use the campaign hashtag #USUbelieves so we can track the number of pledges USU takes.

Denim Day

Special Event

Demin Day will be observed by USU Eastern and is the largest and longest running international sexual assault awareness campaign. Denim Day started in 1999 shortly after an Italian Supreme Court judge overturned a conviction based on the argument that the 18-year-old survivor’s jeans were so tight, her 46-year-old driving instructor couldn’t have removed them himself before sexually assaulting her. We'd love to see the entire USU Eastern community wearing denim on April 26th to show solidarity for survivors! We will also be holding a booth in JLSC from 9am-3pm and invite you all to come by to decorate and take photos by our denim wall.

Denim Day Celebration

Special Event

In 1992, a sexual assault conviction was overturned in Rome, Italy by the Italian High Court because the victim had been wearing tight jeans. The court argued that because her jeans were tight she would have had to assist him in removing them, therefore giving him consent. Enraged by the verdict, the women in the Italian Parliament protested by wearing jeans on the steps of the Supreme Court. Over the years wearing jeans on this anniversary has become an international symbol of protest against erroneous and destructive attitudes about sexual violence. Join in solidarity by wearing jeans on Wednesday, April 26th. Stop by our Denim Day barbecue for photo booth opportunities and to build community.
