Sexual Assault on campus

Wednesday's discussion in class about sexual assault on campus was a topic that many students had alot of personal scenerios to discuss. I think we could probably even come up with several more interesting situations. When I graduated Highschool back in 1995..yes 1995.. I was blessed to go off to a nearby college in Radford, VA..Radford University. It used to be a all womans college but it changed to unisex and the school had alot to offer. I do remember traveling in packs with other girls off to parties and even to classes at night. I remember I even had a guy friend named Phil, who was a BIG guy and he would walk me to a night class. We would always hear of assaults and such at night. SCARY!
Dr. Holliday mentioned a girl who always left her door open because her boyfriend would come in later at night and instead of her boyfriend coming in this particular night, another boy came in and had sex with her. The girl did not know it was her boyfriend?? When I heard about this particular situation I questionned this...I tried to imagine myself..now a light sleeper because I have a child and I know if this happened to me I would know RIGHT away it wasn't my boyfriend. Unless she was such a sound sleeper that she was SLEEPING through the SEX, I find it hard to believe she didn't know it wasn't her boyfriend. Also, if she sleeps THAT deeply then she needs to see an MD!!!! No offense but this was tough to here and not think outside the box. If she claimed Rape, I seriously would have that case turned inside out and upside down.
