After years of neglect regarding sexual violence cases, particularly the Larry Nassar scandal, Michigan State University (MSU) is now engaging with survivors like Rachael Denhollander to form a collaborative advisory board. This initiative aims to assess and improve the university's policies concerning sexual violence. The relationship between survivors and MSU has shifted from adversarial to cooperative, symbolizing a significant change in the institution's approach to ensuring safety and responsiveness to the needs of survivors. Denhollander, alongside fellow survivors, emphasized the power of this partnership in creating meaningful change.
