Abstract
Abstract: This article explores the campus climate of a Historically Black University in the Southeastern United States by providing an overview of the campus’ sexual assault policy and administrators’ perceptions of the climate surrounding sexual assault on the campus. The research question that guided this study is: How does institutional context shape the policy development and implementation of campus sexual assault policy at an HBCU? The research design consists of semi-structured interviews with six administrators that were analyzed using Counterstory. The significance of this study is to contribute to the body of research which exists about campus sexual assault policies at HBCUs. The findings of this study discuss how the institution views their stance on campus sexual assault policy. This study provides administrators with information that can assist in the development and implementation of campus sexual assault policy.
