Main St. Spring Arbor, MI 49283 Dr. Webb: Several months ago, I attempted to implement a sexual assault/date rape prevention program provided by the AWARE Shelter (a domestic violence/sexual assault shelter in Jackson) but was turned down by multiple tiers of Spring Arbor University (SAU) staff. For this reason, I reorganized my information and am returning to plead my case with you. I have also sent the program that I am suggesting along with this letter to the mayor, Karen F. Dunigan; the congressman, Tim Walberg; Director of Campus Safety, Tom Fiero; the Sexual Assault Program Coordinator at AWARE, Linda Schwalm; and the Jackson Citizen Patriot Newspaper. My hope is that this plea is compelling enough to materialize a community crisis response team, a sexual assault/date rape awareness program, all affiliated advertisements (posters, pamphlets, etc.), and lastly, open communication on this topic between SAU and its internal and external communities.
