It looked for a long time as if the Elon University men’s soccer team’s game against Radford University was going to follow an all-too-familiar script. Once the Highlanders scored, every Phoenix fan wondered if the team’s dormant offense, which has struggled all year to find the back of the net, was going to be able to find the equalizer.

'Can I Kiss You?' answers consent questions at Elon

In a time when sexual assault issues are dominating college campuses across the country, the founder of a national company dedicated to raising awareness of consent and other issues paid Elon University a visit Wednesday. Called “Can I Kiss You?” the talk, brought to campus Wednesday evening by SPARKS Peer Education, allowed founder of The Date Safe Project, Mike Domitrz,  to raise awareness among students regarding the risks for sexual assault and accountability issues for bystanders. “Our main goal is teaching students to learn how to intervene, ask and open the door for survivors.” Domirtz said.
