A UW student group launched a new campaign promoting the importance of consent in sexual situations.
PAVE (Promoting Awareness, Victim Empowerment) is behind the Metro bus ads, that feature the tagline “Some things should never be blurry. Get consent every time.”
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and PAVE says they want to stress that while drinking might cause impaired judgement, “there’s no excuse for taking advantage of someone else … We want students to have a good time, but when they drink and hook up, there are simple things they can do to ensure that they’re engaging in safe, consensual sexual activity.”
