KUNM Call In Show Thu. 4/27 8a. For years, the University of New Mexico’s been heavily criticized about how it handles sexual assault, and it’s Sexual Assault Awareness Month. This Thursday morning at 8, we’ll be talking about how UNM can do a better job of helping students who’ve been assaulted—and stopping this kind of violence on campus.
Students, we want to hear from you. What needs to change? How can trust be rebuilt between students and the university?
Let the Office of Equal Opportunity at UNM, which handles the university's investigations, know what you think with this online feedback form.
