SPOTLIGHT ON
Stacey Rose, assistant director of Student Rights & Responsibilities, received the Presenter Award at the Title IX Summit on June 11 and 12 at Rowan University.
Rose was accepted last year to showcase the Title IX program she developed for her post-graduate certificate program in Sexuality Education through the University of Michigan. Under the title “Let’s Talk About Sex,” Rose demonstrates this program during the fall and spring welcome weeks.
“The summit is a great time to learn more about best practices in Title IX and upcoming legislative issues that will impact the work we do on campus,” Rose said. “It also allows us to connect with other colleagues across the country who do the same work.”
“I received amazing feedback from the planning committee about the program. The planning committee said I had rave reviews from participants and someone called it ‘brilliant,’” Rose said.
The committee then requested that Rose present the program again this year where she received the Presenter Award.
“The award was the best recognition I could receive. It was given based on the feedback from the previous summit,” Rose said. “Being acknowledged for this program I’ve worked on for the last few years is an amazing feeling.”
Richard Jones, the vice president for Student Life and Dean of Students at Rowan, presented the award to Rose. Rose said when Jones presented her with the award, he told her she was the “Beyonce of Title IX.”
“Educating students about sexual violence and harassment in a way that is engaging, fun, educational, and thought provoking is something that is difficult. But I am passionate about it.” Rose said. “The response from both my colleagues and students gives me hope we can change the culture around consent, sexual violence and sexual harassment.”FRAME-WORTHY
