UH Commission on the Status of Women
Sexual/Relationship Violence Survey
In the spring 2006, the commission, in conjunction with UH President David McClain, conducted a survey to determine levels of sexual and relationship violence experienced in the lives of University of Hawai‘i students throughout the 10-campus system.
The commission issued findings for all 10 UH campuses based on a survey implemented at the Manoa campus in fall 2003 by the Program Against Violence to Women.
The survey results were collected from students in random lecture courses that had large attendances relative to the campus population. Instructors allowed class time for the survey to be given.
