Respectively one thing that I personally kept in mind going into college was that being on my own, I would be walking by myself at anytime during the day coming to and from class, attending events with people I know, or most definitely encountering strangers.
Respectively one thing that I personally kept in mind going into college was that being on my own, I would be walking by myself at anytime during the day coming to and from class, attending events with people I know, or most definitely encountering strangers. There were many factors that I knew would be an important part of going to college and one of which would be feeling safe.
As a college student myself I know that my campus doesn’t make me feel safe at times, and I reached out to other students from various grades, and different schools and the list of perspectives from students range from what is most common, and to the severe thoughts that linger: a fear of assault.
When I spoke to other students they mentioned that no matter how lit a place can be, being alone especially late at night is an extremely uncomfortable and scary situation. Most college campuses’ have what are called “blue light,” but students are saying that these aren’t enough. There are areas on campus that aren’t lit at all and that automatically makes the heads of students go every which way making sure they aren’t being followed late at night from class. This feeling alone is one that students hate to have, considering being on campus – shouldn’t be scary.
Most students mentioned that seeing police around, in buildings, or just on walks to class make them feel safe automatically. But do they see enough of police? I personally can go days without seeing a student officer, or local police on campus. So having more authority present makes being on campus a safer place.
