Men teeter in heels to raise awareness of sexual violence

CHICAGO, IL -- The men of Saint Xavier University are walking the walk to raise awareness of violence against women.

They put on high heels Wednesday morning and walked a mile around the South Side campus. All of them were willing to look a little silly to make a point.

This is the second year Saint Xavier has held the "Walk a Mile in Her Shoes" event. It comes just two days before the start of Sexual Assault Awareness Month.
