Rogers State University stands in solidarity with global movement to end domestic and intimate partner violence. Take Back the Night is an international event held to recognize the effects of domestic violence in communities and a local event will be held at RSU.

In Oklahoma, 49% of women and 41% of men experience domestic violence in their lifetime. We can help end the cycle by standing up, speaking out, and reporting it. Domestic violence can affect anyone from any background. Students can visit the RSU Counseling Center in the Dr. Carolyn Taylor Center or visit www.rsu.edu/counseling for more information and support for domestic violence.

We at RSU would like to hear your family's story and how you came to be a part of the Hillcat nation family. Recipients will be selected by a committee based on the student-submitted nomination form regarding family involvement, school spirit, and overall impact made to RSU. All Hillcats are eligible for consideration.

The winning family will be recognized at halftime of the Family Day soccer game on Friday, October 29 at 6:30 pm on Soldier Field.
