Pepperdine University School of Law welcomes you to this gathering to address domestic violence in higher education. Panelists will explore various aspects of domestic violence on our college campuses and discuss how universities should respond to the epidemic of dating and intimate partner violence on campus.
This conference will address domestic and intimate partner violence among college students and its intersections with sexual assault and gender violence. Speakers and conferees will discuss institutional responses in policy and practice, culture and law. The School of Law has invited leaders, administrators, teachers, activists, professionals, scholars, and students to participate with speakers representing diverse disciplines and institutions. Colleges and universities face a critical moment of reckoning and response to violence and abuse among students, and Pepperdine hopes that this conference can advance our communities toward peace and justice.
