Every two minutes, someone in America is sexually assaulted. One out of every four women will be sexually assaulted on a college campus. But very few of those assaults get reported.

West Virginia University students and officials are on a mission to change that.

The student-organized groups, Female Equality Movement and Men Against Rape and Violence, in partnership with the WVU Sexual Assault Prevention Program, are organizing Sexual Assault Awareness Week, April 5-9, at WVU .

Deb Strouse, a nationally-certified counselor and health educator, said the activities coincide with national Sexual Assault Awareness Month.

The Clothesline Project, an art exhibit created by women who have been affected by violence, will be on display from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday in the Mountainlair.

Created as an educational and healing tool, the Project is a vehicle for victims to express their emotions by decorating t-shirts and hanging them on a clothesline as a testimony to the problem of violence against women and children.

From 10 a.m.-4 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday, MARV is holdingThe Wall of Shamecontest in the Mountainlair to break down gender stereotypes in the media.

Students are invited to submit magazine and newspaper advertisements depictingmediamen versusrealmen. Pizza and t-shirts will be handed out for the best entries.

The week’s events conclude with speakers, aTake Back the Nightrally and candlelight vigil, sponsored by FEM , at 6:30 p.m. Thursday on the Mountainlair Plaza.

Several speakers are slated for the event including Ruth Kershner, a clinical assistant professor of community medicine at WVU . Strouse said survivors of domestic violence and rape will also have a chance to tell their personal stories.

The evening will culminate in a candlelight vigil and march down High Street to the Monongalia County Courthouse. Candles will be provided.
