Teen Reviewer Comments Extremely appropriate to show to incoming college freshmen at orientation or even to high school seniors; in the rush of leaving home for college, the risks of parties can be overlooked. Very good for recognizing differences between consent and non-consent and how to get help. Shows different scenarios from both a female and male side of sexual victimization.
