BINGHAMTON UNIVERSITY Counseling Center
	20:1 FRATERNITY SEXUAL ASSAULT PEER EDUCATION PROGRAM

(Dedicated to the approximately 20 women per hour who are sexually assaulted in the United States)

At Binghamton University in 2004, 20:1, a peer education program was founded. This group is comprised of fraternity leaders from diverse fraternity groups on the BU campus. These men voluntarily educate other fraternity men and other men's groups on issues regarding sexual assault. They have provided education for all 25 IFC and multi-cultural fraternities on campus and provide the New Member Education in the fall and spring semesters. They have presented at national conferences and have consulted with fraternity leaders on other college campuses to set up programs similar to this one. Currently 20:1 is one of the only successful fraternity peer education programs addressing the issue of sexual assault on college campuses in the United States.
