...AWARENESS WORKSHOP TO EXAMINE ALL ASPECTS OF RAPE...A concerted effort to raise the level
of consciousness about the problems of rape will be made during a four-day workshop to be held
at Evergreen Nov. 18-21. Campus Police Assistant_Ann_ Brown_, an organizer of the workshop,
said she hopes the presentation
which will include speeches, demonstrations of martial arts,
films and panel discussions
will increase everyone's awareness of the problems of rape.
"It's been said that the problem of rape will not be resolved until men and women both
have become more aware of its causes and effects," Brown said. "We're hoping to provide an
opportunity for everyone to examine all aspects of rape
medical, moral, ethical, legal and
psychological
and to spark the kind of dialogue that will help all of us better understand
the problem, both as individuals and as members of this community."
The workshop will begin at 12:30 p.m. Nov. 18 with a multi-image presentation on "Myth
and Stereotype of Rape." Psychologist Maureen Saylor of the Western Washington State Hospital
Sexual Psychopath Program will discuss the problem of rape at 1:15 p.m. And, the movie, "No
