A Greek task force held its first meeting Monday night to discuss how the Greek community can address sexual assault.
The presidents of the KU Panhellenic Association and Interfraternity Council gave reports on sexual assault and the task force was updated on Student Senate discussions. Members also talked about the future of the task force.
The Panhellenic Association and Interfraternity Council have come together to create a framework for additional sexual assault programming, which will be part of a new member education that each chapter will be able to personalize. The programs will address prevention and awareness of sexual assault, as well as how the house will deal with it.
The greek task force will be involved in reviewing these programs, as well as looking at other measures each house is taking to address sexual assault.

Young said she believes addressing sexual assault at a chapter level will be the most effective way to promote change.
"It will help hold us to a higher standard by creating more programming, awareness and education," said Maggie Young, president of the KU
"We're a smaller group, and we recognize that we have the power to manage it within our own facilities," Young said. "It's necessary because what we've done in the past isn't working, so we are taking an extra step to ensure we eradicate the problem from the community."
Young said one of the goals
of the task force is to show that the greek community is taking an active stance in the issue and will be accountable.
"This way everyone can be aware of what we're doing to tackle it." Young said.
Morgan Said, student body president and a senior in Pi Beta Phi from Kansas City, Mo., said action within
the greek community will encourage discussion, education and change.
"The greek community wants to ensure it keeps up with the rest of campus," Said said.
