RE:
Report Pursuant to
Wis. Stat. §
36.11(22)(2)(b)
Section
36.11(22)(2)(b) Wis. Stat. §
36.11(22)(2)(b) requires the Board of Regents to annually submit a report to the chief clerk of each house of the Legislature on the methods used by each UW System institution to disseminate information to students on sexual assault and sexual harassment.
The law requires UW System institutions to incorporate into their orientation programs for newly entering students oral and written information on sexual assault and sexual harassment, including information on: 1) sexual assault by acquaintances of the victims; 2) the legal definitions and penalties for sexual assault; 3) generally available national, state, and campus statistics on sexual assault; 4) the rights of victims; and 5) protective behaviors including methods of recognizing and avoiding sexual assault and sexual harassment. In addition, each institution must annually supply to all students enrolled in the institution printed material that includes information on all of these topics. This law was enacted in April 1990 and this is the seventeenth report to be compiled for the Legislature since its enactment.
At its meeting April 8, 2007, the Board of Regents accepted the attached 2006 report for submission to the chief clerk of each house of the legislature for distribution to the appropriate standing committees under
Wis. Stat. §
13.172(3). The attached report fulfills the requirements of this statute.
If you need additional information regarding this report, please contact Janice Sheppard at

Referred to committee on Colleges and Universities.
