The Sexual Misconduct Prevention Guidebook

Conduct and Consent for Higher Education Campuses

By: Laura McGuire

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

In this Guidebook, Dr. Laura McGuire deploys her lived experience as a sexual misconduct prevention expert in higher education and the military to develop a series of best practices for use on campus at today’s educational institutions. Going beyond Title IX compliance, this guidebook helps professionals to develop effective policies for preventing and responding to sexual misconduct in their organizations. From restorative justice in university settings to ways to increase accessibility and inclusion, McGuire draws from scholarship, real-life experience, and interviews with fellow experts to build a resource that is much needed in the world today.
Conversations around consent, what to do with those who caused harm, and power dynamics everywhere from the classroom to the bedroom will never be the same. On college campuses, these conversations have continued to evolve, but often with misguided efforts and a lack of clear guidance. How do these conversations start and how do those working in education address them effectively? The answers form the basis of this book
