Session details
No Zebras, No Excuses
The “No Zebras, No Excuses” orientation presentation has been part of orientation for students at CMU for over twenty years. Sponsored by SAPA & the Department of Sexual Aggression Services, this powerful program educates on sexual aggression and bystander intervention. The show utilizes video vignettes and a moderator discussion to portray the important issues of sexual assault, intimate partner violence, stalking, harassment, and sexual exploitation. It also challenges students to consider how to avoid being a bystander in these situations.
