MN SF4304

Requires postsecondary institutions to establish affirmative consent standards in campus sexual assault policies that include six minimum elements defining how consent must be expressed, understood, and withdrawn.

Specifies that consent must be knowing, voluntary, and actively expressed through words or overt actions; silence or lack of protest alone does not constitute consent.

Clarifies that consent to one form of sexual activity does not imply consent to other forms, consent may be withdrawn at any time, and previous relationships or prior consent do not imply future consent.

Requires comprehensive sexual assault training for campus security officers and administrators within a specified timeline, covering dynamics of sexual assault, trauma responses, and best practices for prevention and investigation.

Mandates all students complete sexual assault training within ten business days of their first semester, with institutions documenting completion; students enrolled at multiple institutions in the same system complete training only once.
