Although there is a perception of college and university campuses as sanctuaries of learning, they are not always safe places for women. The studies by the Carnegie Foundation for Higher Education as well as other research on violence against women confirm sexual harassment and dating violence as significant barriers to women's educational achievement. Ernest Boyer, former President of the Carnegie Foundation, envisioned the college campus as a community of learners where civility is affirmed, diversity pursued, group obligations guide behavior, individuals are supported and service is encouraged, and traditions are celebrated and shared. This vision has strong parallels with efforts to develop coordinated campus responses to violence against women. Based on a case study of a strategic alliance within a university and between the university and community-based organization, this article highlights the achievements of this collaboration along with the role of a school of social work in facilitating this alliance.
