MEDIA ADVISORY: Clothesline Project begins Monday

Contact: Sammy McDavid

Mississippi State's Sexual Assault Services and Student Counseling Services are sponsoring the 2007 Clothesline Project Monday-Thursday [Sept. 17-20] on the university's Drill Field. The display will be featured 11a.m. -2 p.m. each day.

The Clothesline Project (www.clotheslineproject.org) is a national program designed to address sexual assault on college campuses.

Members of the MSU and Starkville communities who have been impacted by sexual assault are being asked to show their support by donating solid-colored T-shirts to Sexual Assault Services, or by designing a T-shirt to be displayed on the Drill Field later that week.

For more information, contact LaWanda Swan or Kevin Bailey at 662-325-2091 or, respectively, lds51@saffairs.msstate.edu or kbb32@msstate.edu.
