'It's beginning to look a lot like students'
Sexual harassment and violence of any form is never acceptable. Our campaign with Oxford SU focuses on the range of support available for our students, including our Support Service. The Oxford SU has also created a brilliant Consent Matters course. If you haven’t had time to take it yet, make sure to do so before term gets too busy. It doesn’t take long to complete and covers important topics to help you understand consent, communication and looking out for others - link in bio. #OxfordAgainstSexualViolence

We can't wait to welcome all our new students over the next few days! Remember, just ask anyone if you're not sure what to do. Several members of academic office and housekeeping can be seen here proving that we definitely don't bite! #SomervilleFreshers
