Twenty-five years ago, MSU formed one of the first on-campus sexual assault programs in the country.
The program was started by students wanting to respond to sexual assault on campus, said Carmen Lane, the advocacy coordinator for the Sexual Assault Crisis & Safety Education Program.
A room full of about 40 volunteers, university, local officials, and past and present coordinators celebrated the 25th anniversary of the program on Tuesday.
Although the program has grown in many ways, such as having more full-time staff positions, the core values of the program have remained the same, Lane said.
"Student volunteers are the core of who we are," she said.
