Can banners at OSU help end rape culture?

From “Daughter Daycare” to “Consent is Sexy Mandatory,” signage during Ohio State’s Welcome Week is making a pivot.

A campaign called “Banner Up” has made its way to OSU thanks to Advocates for Women of the World. Thirty-two greek chapters at the university participated during Welcome Week by hanging large banners with statements like “It’s a Dress, Not a Yes” and “Consent is Sexy Mandatory,” reports The Lantern.

AWOW hope the signage will educate people on sexual assault and promote safe, consensual sex during the school year.

This movement comes after controversy surrounded off-campus bannering in 2015.
