As part of Sexual Assault Awareness Month, Kansas University’s Office of Institutional Opportunity and Access will host the inaugural March for a Voice event at 5:30 p.m. on the lawn in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall, 1435 Jayhawk Blvd. The purpose of the event is to spread awareness about the prevalence of unreported sexual assault. Materials will be provided to make signs and pins for the march. Free snacks will also be offered from 5:30 to 6:15. At 6:15, participants will march from the Stauffer-Flint lawn to the Kansas Memorial Union to show support for reporting sexual assault.

Schoolboy Q

Finally, depending on your preference for excitement, head to or away from Liberty Hall, 644 Massachussetts St., starting at 8 p.m., when the doors open for Schoolboy Q with Isaiah Rashad and Vince Staples. The South Central rapper’s major-label debut, “Oxymoron,” dropped in February, with guest spots by Kendrick Lamar, Pharrell and ASAP Rocky, among many. This will be a wild show. Tickets: $28 at the door.
