Two University of Windsor professors will further their innovative work in sexual assault resistance education thanks to a $2.5 million investment from the Public Health Agency of Canada.

Charlene Senn, a professor of psychology and women’s and gender studies, and Sara Crann, an adjunct professor of psychology, will use the funding to expand the Girls - Flip the Script with EAAA program, a sexual assault resistance initiative designed for high school-aged girls across Canada. The funding is part of a larger $14.5 million federal initiative to prevent youth dating violence.

Faculty members in the School of Dramatic Art have been working hard to create enriching and engaging learning experiences for students, says director David Court.

“Our first project for the school year will be a works-in-progress class presentation of Jekyll and Hyde in the Hatch Studio Theatre in October,” he says. “It will be presented with minimal technical requirements, offering a unique and immersive experience for performers and the audience.”
