Sujay Lama is at the third stop of his college coaching career and has a unique perspective when it comes to the issues that schools face in terms of sexual violence education for athletes. Lama coaches North Texas’ women’s tennis team and deals with the issues female athletes can encounter. He expressed confidence in the job UNT is doing in educating its athletes, coaches and administrators on the issue of sexual violence in the wake of the news Thursday that Baylor has suspended football coach Art Briles with the intent to fire him. UNT coordinates each year what school officials described as an extensive seminar on issues including sexual assault for players and coaches. “There is no doubt that North Texas has a good program and is proactive,” Lama said. “I have been at three institutions and have been to more of those types of educational programs here than at the other two places I have been.” UNT is expanding its programs to educate athletes about sexual violence. Inya Baiye, who works in UNT’s Office of Equal Opportunity, conducted a seminar on sexual violence with UNT’s coaches and staff this year. A member of the office will meet with each of UNT’s teams to talk about sexual violence next school year. read more: http://www.dentonrc.com/sports/sports-headlines/20160526-unt-employs-seminar-program-on-violence.ece
