The University of Iowa Council on the Status of Women, Rape Victim Advocacy Program (RVAP), and the UI Women's Resource and Action Center (WRAC) will be hosting a screening and discussion of the film, "It Was Rape" by Jennifer Baumgardner.

• Thursday, Sept. 18, 7 p.m., Iowa Memorial Union-Nebraska Room 335
• Sunday, Sept. 21, 3 p.m., Iowa City Public Library, Meeting Room A
