Reply to comment by alien_from_Europa in West Virginia students protest second day over reported sexual abuse incident by thedriverera

I would guess most schools have a rape trail because it’s so common in a college environment.

My alma mater has one too.

My alma mater at least spent the money necessary to have all their trails very well lit so hopefully that helps.

Nah not really, my school did the same and even placed several emergency posts that would call the campus police and it’s not a deterrent.

Sounds like IC. Blue lights?

Yes on the blue lights no on IC but this just goes to show how common it is in a college environment.

Then a side question about your blue light system.

Ours was made so from one of the light poles, you could see at least 2 more. They recommended (I wish I was lying). Not staying at one of them, but contacting at one, and continue down a path, continuing to buzz as you pass one.

I don’t think we were given that instruction, but they are positioned that way along the trail.

My college didn’t have a rape trail. But SAE had a rape room. Fuck those assholes.

It’s so common I was roofied at a party. Thank god I was 6’6 and 300 lbs because it hit me slow enough that I could find someone. It sucked and I was sick as fuck but at least the poor girl who grabbed my drink instead didn’t have the worst night of her life. Party was shut down so someone’s plans were at least put on hold
