University Housing Participates in Denim Day, Today
SIUE Housing will participate in Denim Day:
12 p.m.
Today
Cougar Statue in front of the Morris University Center
The Denim Day campaign, coordinated by Peace Over Violence, has been taking place for the past 19 years and is held in honor of Sexual Violence Awareness Month.
The Denim Day campaign was originally triggered by an Italian Supreme Court ruling, where a rape conviction was overturned. Justices believed that because the victim was wearing tight jeans, she must have helped her rapist remove them, thereby implying consent. The following day, women in the Italian Parliament came to work wearing jeans in solidarity with the victim.
Those wishing to support University Housing’s efforts should wear denim and meet at the Cougar Statue for a group photo. Denim Day stickers and awareness ribbons will be available at the front desks of the residence halls and Cougar Village Commons.
For more information on University Housing’s involvement in Denim Day, contact Cougar Village 400 Community Director Ashley Stegall at 650-2965 or astegal@siue.edu.

 |

Video surveillance equipment is scheduled to be upgraded at the SIUE Morris University Center and on the Quad on the Edwardsville campus.
The new equipment will be used by Campus Police to protect students, reduce the risk of theft and reduce damage to property. The cameras will enhance the overall safety and security at the MUC and the Quad, and take advantage of evolving technology that allows for high quality cameras.
Two cameras will be installed on the Quad: one Quad Cam that will be directed at The Rock, and one Cougar Cam that will be directed at the Cougar outside the MUC. The Quad Cam and the Cougar Cam will be available as Web Cams so alumni can see what’s happening at SIUE anytime, and students can wave to their friends and families all over the world.
In accordance with Section II (F) of the University’s Video Surveillance Policy, Vice Chancellor for Administration Rich Walker has approved the installation of the additional security equipment.
