PORTLAND, Maine (AP) - The University of Southern Maine is getting a $300,000 grant to set up a campus safety program aimed at helping victims of sexual assault, domestic violence and stalking.

The Justice Department's Office of Violence Against Women awarded the grant to a project proposed by Susan Fineran, an associate professor of social work.

The Portland Press Herald reports the program is a collaborative effort of the Muskie School of Public Service, the Division of Student and University Life and campus police.
