Description
An account of the resource
The Sexual and Relationship Respect Committee (SRR) was founded in 2015 by Maddie Orcutt ‘16, Sherielle Crosby ‘16, Katie Preston ‘17, and Michelle Peng ‘15, who were all heavily engaged in It Happens Here. After attending a conference at Amherst College and learning of a similar position, these students worked to pass a bill in our SGA Senate that added the Director of Sexual and Relationship Respect position to Middlebury’s SGA cabinet. This bill was passed in the Spring of 2015 and Maddie Orcutt assumed the first directorship position. Two years later, during the 2017-2018 academic year, SRR became an ad hoc committee, meaning that it included committee members in addition to directors for the first time. The SRR committee represents the sexual and relationship respect concerns of the student body when it comes to matters involving the SGA or administration. Most prominently, SRR has engaged in activism regarding freshman orientation consent education, free access to safe sex supplies and menstutal products, and a Complcity Project in which students were asked to recognize and challenge their complicity in Middlebury’s culture of sexual assault. See the SRR collection to learn more about these SRR projects and many others.

Description
An account of the resource
Elissa Asch '22.5, who directed SRR in the 2019-2020 academic year, wanted to improve orientation programming around consent and sexual assault. Before the fall started, she contacted every NESCAC school to interview administrators and students and learn about their mandatory orientation programming. After learning that Middlebury was the only NESCAC school that had zero consent education/programming during orientation, Asch put together an Orientation Consent Programming Pitch. The pitch included statistics, information about orientation programming at every NESCAC school, quotes from officials at the NESCAC's on why mandatory consent education is valuable, and the reasons that this type of programming fulfills Middlebury's mission. She presented her pitch to Middlebury administrators in the fall and worked with them over the next few months to plan February Orientation programming.
