Corrections

Correction 4/27/2022 – “A Safer Stetson”: Below is the most updated and corrected information that we received prior to official release of “A Safer Stetson” in Issue 4 Spring 2022 of The Reporter courtesy of Sara Smith-Paez, Project Director of Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault, and Stalking Prevention Grant.

• Please note, Stetson received a several hundred-thousand-dollar grant from the federal government that is solely dedicated to addressing domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking prevention. The spending of this money is often delayed by federal processes, but all of the money is being dedicated to DVSAS prevention.
• Please note: the main tenants of the Jeanne Clery safety act are that warnings are issues for immanent and ongoing threats to campus.
• Title IX can offer resources to students outside of an investigation which do not require evidence. Only formal investigations require evidence. No contact orders, faculty notification that a student needs leniency, housing or schedule changes, educational conversations with alleged perpetrators, etc. DO NOT require investigative procedures.
• No contact orders DO NOT require consent of the other party to file. Like any other policy, there is limited control Stetson has over if people follow them. But Stetson has a zero-tolerance policy for violating no contact orders. They can break it like any policy or even law can be broken, but they cannot refuse its implementation and they will be held accountable for violating the no contact order.
• More immanent and ongoing threats to campus are committed by non-Stetson affiliated individuals which is why more Clery notifications go out about non-Stetson affiliated individuals.
• Please note: most reports of sexual violence come in far after they occur, due to the traumatic nature of the event and how retelling the story can be traumatic. As previously stated, the main qualifications for Clery notifications are that the threat be imminent and ongoing.
• Please note: As of Spring 2022, Public Safety Command staff have all receiving training on trauma informed responses to DVSAS and training for all public safety staff will take place during the summer of 2022
• “The Power of Story: Learning from Survivors” took place on March 31st

Correction 3/8/2021 – “The 2020 Election in Hindsight”: In Issue 3 of The Reporter, an earlier version of “The 2020 Election in Hindsight” stated that Mauree Turner is the country’s first openly transgender state senator. Mauree Turner is the country’s first openly nonbinary state lawmaker. This was a mistake made in the editing process rather than that of the original author. Hatter Network regrets this error.
