AJSAC Fact Sheet released - Sexual misconduct and sexual assault committed against University of Alaska students

The most recent issue of the AJSAC Fact Sheet — "Sexual Misconduct and Sexual Assault Against University of Alaska Students" — presents past year estimates of sexual misconduct and sexual assault victimization against University of Alaska (UA) students. The estimates are based on 1,982 survey responses to the University of Alaska Campus Climate Survey, an online survey that collected data from a random sample of undergraduate and graduate students who were enrolled at UA during spring semester 2016.

The University of Alaska Campus Climate Survey was designed to establish baseline estimates of sexual misconduct and sexual assault committed in the preceding year — both on and off campus — against students enrolled at UA during the spring semester 2016. This survey was modeled after the Campus Climate Survey Recommendations prepared by the White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault.  These data can be utilized by the University of Alaska to impact and evaluate prevention efforts and education programs for UA students.
