Peers confront sexual violence through bystander training workshops

Growing up in the hyper-masculine atmosphere that goes along with male-dominated sports like travel hockey, Dylan Schentag heard his fair share of sexist locker room jokes and crude remarks about women.

Time to reconsider research assignments, librarian suggests

Whether buying a car, voting, applying for a new job or gathering the latest medical information for a sick family member, a critical eye and the ability to effectively conduct good quality research are essentials.

That’s why we need to think more about how our students exist in the world when handing out research assignments, according to an information literacy librarian whose scholarly research focuses on students and research.

A new film that focuses on a pioneer of the women’s movement in Windsor is much more than a lesson in feminism, according to its co-director.

Acknowledging sexual assault focus of PhD thesis

Even though by the letter of the law they may have been sexually assaulted, an alarming number of women don’t label what happened to them as sexual assault or rape, according to Dusty Johnstone.

A post-doctoral teaching fellow in Women’s Studies, Dr. Johnstone recently defended her 250-page PhD dissertation, a qualitative study based on interviews of 10 women who technically had been sexually assaulted, but didn’t label their experiences as such.

Rare 'hybrid' manta ray discovered by UWindsor scientists

A rare type of hybrid manta ray has been discovered in the Red Sea thanks to the work of a trio of University of Windsor scientists and their research partners in Sudan.

The ray, a cross between a Reef Manta Ray (Manta alfredi) and a Giant Manta Ray (Manta birostris), is only the second documented case of hybridization in elasmobranchs, the subclass of fish that includes sharks and rays, according to the group.
