“I feel safe, but that’s because I have the privilege of being cisgender, white and old.
“This morning in my class, I opened it up to students to talk about how they felt. And I remember how it was to be a student on a college campus in the ’80s and being sexually assaulted on campus and having administration encourage me to drop it and move on. I am horrified that 30 years later other students might feel equally unsupported and unsafe.”
