Luna

We would get cross-examined.

She described it in a way that turned me off of the idea almost completely.

The language that she was using, she just kept saying, well, remember, you can always do an informal resolution.

She kept saying how common it was for people to do an informal resolution.

But I'm like, first of all, it shouldn't be common to have to do Title IX at this school at all.

And second of all, I just feel like you don't want me to move forward.

You don't want to have to work hard enough to do the investigation because you don't want this on your record.

So that was kind of the first conversation we ever had.

And then she printed out a paper that had all of my rights on it and made me sign it to show that she technically like explained all of the conditions to me and all of my options.

And then she sent me on my way and told me that I should send her my written statement whenever I had time and that we could go from there.

Then I saw him.

I was walking back in after my meeting, actually, with the dean to grab some of my stuff from my dorm to go back home.

He was coming back from, I assume, class or something.

He saw me in the common room and he started talking to me.

He kept saying my name over and over again.

And I just kept trying to speed walk as fast as I could away from him and up to the staircase.

So I just had to get to the locked door and I was freaking out because I don't know what

you expect me to say.

And I was trying to call my roommate as fast as I could to have her come meet me because I don't even want to be in the vicinity of this guy anymore.

And he kept yelling to me and being like, are you mad at me?
