Members of the College community stood together against sexual violence recently during the Take Back the Night rally. Students, faculty, and staff gathered at various locations around campus and took part in a silent march ending at the Quad. The “silence was shattered” with various chants and remarks by Mary Armstrong, associate professor and chair of women’s and gender studies, and Emily Musil Church, assistant professor of history.
