  9. "The Enough is Enough campaign helped me learn and understand what sexual harassment was. It also taught me ways to help identify and prevent sexual harassment in my community. My favorite part of the Enough is Enough campaign was the Students Fight Back self-defense presentation. It was very inspiring and has motivated me to take a self-defense class so I can learn how to protect myself. Another thing I enjoyed when participating in this program was pledging to be violent free and I often repeat to myself ‘what have you done to stop the violence’ and this helps me remember to fight back against the violence and inspire people to do the same." “The Enough is Enough campaign programs that were hosted at MCC this past year helped me in so many ways. Not only did they make me hyperaware about what is going on in the world around us and what is the reality of the lives of so many; it also helped to empower to make a difference. These programs have made me confident that if I were faced with a situation of any type of violence (either towards myself or another), I have the power to PUT AN END TO IT.” “Howdy, I just have to say… Sara’s painting of bruises on students to show what it feels like to ‘wear’ a secret had an amazing impact! About 6-8 students walked away with bruises and shared their stories with us of physical abuse and rape. It was just amazing with how many students wanted to share their story and heartbreaking with how many students had a story to share. Thanks Rebecca for giving me an opportunity to be involved in the Enough is Enough campaign. What a great program for the college!” Impact on Campus
