It Is Not A Game (INAG)

“It’s Not a Game” or INAG is a peer led presentation delivered by our Changing Carolina peers or SAVIP Staff (however, it is predominantly presented by the peers). It is an interactive presentation that encourages students to think about and discuss healthy relationships. Issues of stalking, relationship violence, and sexual assault are covered.

True Strength

True Strength is a presentation designed to be presented to men by men, but can be adapted if needed. It is the belief of SAVIP that interpersonal violence is not just a women’s issue and that men can be accountable bystanders when it comes to issues of interpersonal violence. The purpose of this presentation is to inspire men to take a closer look at what is going on around them, realize that they cannot be apathetic to dangerous situations, and that they can stand up to make an impact in the lives of others. This presentation will address the “true strength” of a man, define sexual assault by South Carolina state law as well as University of South Carolina policy, define the perimeters of consent, discuss sexual assault on college campuses, discuss the effects of alcohol, discuss victim impact, discuss protocol for when a sexual assault occurs, review statistics and myths of sexual assault, and identify resources for victims of sexual assault.

Stand Up Carolina!

This is a staff led power point presentation developed within SAVIP. This is designed to foster proactive behavior from all students, faculty and staff. Sexual violence prevention programs discourage negative behavior by curtailing discriminatory, destructive, and illegal behavior on campus. We hope to call attention to bystander behavior by encouraging people to react and take appropriate action. Furthermore, this presentation highlights the prevalence and impact of acquaintance rape, dating violence, and stalking along with the role campus communities can play in ending violence.
