Connecticut College and Yale University will share $643,000 in federal funds to create programs to prevent violence against women on campus.
The grants, from the Department of Justice, will also help the colleges come up with strategies to address domestic violence.
The funds come from the Office on Violence Against Women and the National Institute of Justice, both units of the Justice Department.
"Unfortunately, violence against women on college campuses occurs far too often," U.S. Sen. Christopher Dodd said while announcing the grants Friday. "In light of the recent tragedy on Yale's campus, this funding underscores the importance of preventing violence against women at home, at the workplace, and on our college campuses. It is my hope that with these funds, education and prevention partnerships will work toward eliminating violence against women."
The body of Yale graduate student Annie Le was found in a university building earlier this month. Police have charged a co-worker in the slaying, which the New Haven police chief characterized as workplace violence.
Connecticut College will use $299,277 to weave expanded sexual-assault awareness and prevention programs into the campus culture, said spokeswoman Amy Martin. She said services for victims will also be enhanced and the focus will be on preventing domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault and stalking.
Martin said the initiative, Operation Think SAFE, is part of an overall expansion of wellness programs at the New London campus.
According to Dodd's news release, Yale will use $343,565 for "criminal justice research into preventing violence against women." A Yale spokeswoman did not return a voice mail message seeking comment.
