October is Domestic Violence and Crime Prevention Month
Imagine 100 murder victims in a room, each one telling their story. Imagine that each one died violently at the hand of someone who was supposed to love them.
That is the story told by The Silent Witness, an exhibit on display in the
Student Union on October 10th, 2008 from 10am to 2pm.
The exhibit contains 100 life-sized red silhouettes representing a man, woman or child that died at the hands of their abuser. Each individual’s story is written on the front of the silhouette – a story told too late to rescue these victims, but not too late to help others in Oklahoma.
PLUS…
‘8.5 x 11’ Contest with Prizes Sponsored by CAB
After you visit the exhibit, tell us what you think for the chance to win 1 of 3 prizes provided by CAB, including an iPod Shuffle. Just fill an 8.5 x 11” sheet of paper with your reaction and turn it in to CAB or in the Office of the Dean of Students to have your name entered in the drawing. Submissions will be displayed in the Student Union Lobby and three names will be drawn at the end of Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Remember: the greatest thing that we can do to stop domestic violence and other violent relational crimes in our community it to speak up and confront it!
