What is Green Dot?

A Green Dot is any action that reduces the risk of violence in the moment, supports survivors or creates a culture less tolerant of power-based personal violence. A Green Dot is your individual choice to make our campus safer.

The Green Dot movement is about gaining a critical mass of students, staff and faculty who are willing to do their small part to actively and visibly reduce power-based personal violence at the University of St. Thomas.

What’s a Green Out?

• Wear green at the game to represent your commitment to keep UST safe from sexual assault. 
• Wear green to take a stand against sexual assault. 
• Wear green to represent your commitment to an environment in which sexual assault is unacceptable and survivors are supported.

The game will be sponsored by UST Green Dot and the Luann Dummer Center for Women. Green Dot is a movement of UST students, staff, faculty, and alumni committed to doing a small part to actively and visibly reduce power-based personal violence in the UST community.  It’s On Us to keep our campus safe.  Join us today by taking the pledge, learning more at the lobby table, and waving your green rally towel!

To RECOGNIZE non-consensual sex is sexual assault.

To IDENTIFY situations where sexual assault may occur.

To INTERVENE in situations when consent has not or cannot be given.

To CREATE an environment where sexual assault is unacceptable and survivors are supported.

This pledge is a personal commitment to help keep women and men safe from sexual assault. It is a promise not to be a bystander to the problem, but to be a part of the solution.
