As students and staff navigate their response to gender violence, it is helpful to be knowledgeable about campus policies and procedures.

There is a public transportation system, but many students find it less convenient than the transportation systems they are used to in their home cities, states, or countries. The pedestrian and cycling infrastructure is also not as strong because of the emphasis…
