Take Back the Night

By Lauren Braun
Take Back the Night is the culmination of the White Ribbon Campaign at Syracuse University, which has been running since March 28. The campaign, which involved the Steps in the Right Direction march and the ongoing sale of white ribbons, wristbands, and lapel pins, is "committed to ending the silence that so often hides abusive behavior toward women" according to Rev. Thomas V. Wolf of Hendricks Chapel (SU Division of Student Affairs). Take Back the Night is an opportunity for members from the SU campus and surrounding community to join together against sexual and domestic violence. The combined rally, march, and speak-out begins at 7:00pm on April 16 at Hendricks Chapel.
