NACOGDOCHES, Texas — Stephen F. Austin State University’s Office of Multicultural Affairs will host its Brave Space Series at 4 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 12, in the Baker Pattillo Student Center Multimedia Room. The discussion will focus on consent.
 
“The Office of Multicultural Affairs’ open dialogue series invites participants to discuss society’s meaning of consent versus its actual definition,” said La-Meria Seriale, OMA student ambassador. “In this discussion, we will learn how to properly ask for consent and how to apply it in today's society.”
 
Each month, OMA's Brave Space Series provides a forum for open and honest discussion concerning difficult topics.

“We will be covering consent regarding relationships and sexual partnerships as far as what consent is, how to properly ask for consent, and how to prevent sexual coercion and sexual assault from happening,” said Star Jackson, OMA graduate assistant.  
 
The discussion is free and open to the SFA and Nacogdoches communities. Due to physical distancing guidelines, the meeting also will be available on Zoom. A link to the meeting is available on OMA’s website, www.sfasu.edu/oma.
