Consent Conversations at the Berg
Consent Conversations at the Berg is a multilayered approach to engaging the Muhlenberg Community in education, prevention, and dialogue around the concept of consent and how to have hard conversations around topics like healthy relationships, boundaries, sexuality, intimacy, desires, wants, needs, harm, prevention, assault, trauma, healing, self-love and all the things that come with those topics. Led by Jennifer Storm, the Director of Equity & Title IX, and Karmen Brown, the Associate Director of Prevention Education, Consent Conversations offers a space for tough conversations with the goal of preventing future harm and empowering people to ask, think and process.

Join Jenn and Karmen as they discuss how to appropriately use language around those who commit harm. Terms such as assailant, predator, and rapist, are valid terms in describing people who have assaulted people, who have intentionally preyed upon multiple victims and those who have raped others. However, we want to ensure these terms are used in ways that are healing, impactful to survivors and also ensure we are not misusing or inflaming language that will then do harm to others.
