The “I Got Your Back” campaign starts Sept. 19, as a part of the Katy Benoit Safety Forum.
The first event is at 7 p.m. in the Student Union Building ballroom featuring Tyson Wooters as the guest speaker.
His presentation will “focus on illuminating the power of being a part of something much larger than oneself.”
University of Idaho Dean of Students Bruce Pitman said the forum will become an annual event in the fall semester and will focus on improving campus safety using the “I Got Your Back” campaign, which promotes students taking care of other students.
“On this campus, we recognize the unique role that students can play in campus health and safety, and the heath and safety of their peers,” Pitman said in a press release. “We want to support their efforts with additional training and resources.”
