To Professor Michael Farthing (Vice-Chancellor), Mr Simon Fanshawe (Chair of Council) and Mrs Claire Powrie (Director of Student Services),

As a student/member of staff at the University of Sussex

I want to draw your attention to the fact that 1 in 7 women students in the UK have experienced a serious physical or sexual assault during their studies. (NUS Hidden Marks Report 2009-2010)

I believe that all students have the right to live and study in an environment free from sexual violence and harassment. I believe that sexual harassment and violence is a serious problem that affects students and that all survivors have the right to care, respect and support.

I demand that the University takes action to address the problem of sexual harassment and violence, thereby showing its dedication to the rights and welfare of its students.
