He didn't know enough information.

And I think that's also a big point is that they don't take in nearly enough information to get the context behind what's going on to make the choices that they make.

I think that so much of the damage is these things that you can't necessarily see.

I think that for him to say that they need to stop him from violently raping someone next time, first of all, no bedside manner.

And second of all, like, it's just an inappropriate thing to say.

Why do you think he took that approach?

I do think it was partially because he was an athlete.

But I also think that he took the points that I said about it not being on campus, that I don't live on campus, and that he doesn't go to our school.

He realized, oh, not my problem.

And so I think that that was the biggest thing.

And he very much was trying to pass the buck on to someone else, even though I was a full-time student.

And the hard thing too is I was a very normal student.

I didn't ever ask for anything.

I was just behind the scenes trying to do what I needed to do to graduate.

That's my biggest qualm with all of this is there were so many roadblocks and not just roadblocks like walls that I didn't think I was going to get through.

And there were so many times that I wanted to quit.

I started to feel pretty hopeless.

I was never reached out to by my university ever again.

There was no follow-up.

There was no asking if things were okay, how my semester was going.
