Spelman College Title IX & Compliance

Due date is approaching! Get it done today!

The DiSPEL Active Bystander Award recognizes a Spelman community member who exemplifies the principles of bystander intervention, actively working to foster a safer and more inclusive environment. Congratulations to the 2nd annual recipient of the DiSpel Award, Dr. Chatee Omi Richardson. Dr. Richardson has a commitment to Spelman College beyond the role she fills. From being an after hours support and consistently referring students, to volunteering for the process pool, Dr. Richardson goes the extra mile, actively working to dispel negative social norms, and assist with creating an environment that enhances the Spelman experience.

Join us TODAY for The 4th Annual DeStress Fest. Step away for a moment and unwind, recharge, and elevate.

Denim isn’t just worn,it speaks. This Friday, the runway becomes a language of its own. Every thread holds a truth. Every step echoes something deeper.

Of course the biggest incentive is a safer campus experience, but of course we are leveling up the incentives to take the survey. If you haven’t yet, take the survey and tell your fellow Spelmanites to take it as well.

April is here, but we’d be remiss if we didn’t highlight the engagement during Women’s History Month. Thanks to everyone who connected with us and the VP&I Program. If you haven’t done so yet, take the campus climate survey on sexual misconduct.

Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) is nationally observed every April to raise awareness about sexual violence while promoting prevention efforts and supporting survivors. SAAM traces back to the 1970s, and in 2026, we highlight this year’s theme: “25 Years Stronger: Looking Back, Moving Forward.”

We look forward to connecting and taking action with you this month as we continue to raise awareness, strengthen prevention efforts, and work toward making Spelman a safer, more inclusive community for all.

As Samara Boyd, a VP&I Peer Educator, stated, You have rights, we are here to support you, and you are not alone.
