Are Colleges Safe?
Recently it has come to my attention that Manhattan Area
Technical College has been having more problems than just low
enrollment.
A student at the college has come to the result of quitting due
to abuse by the student body. The abuse, both physical and
emotional, has been somehow oblivious to the college; or at
least not handled properly.
A school is meant as a learning institution and a gateway to our
children's future. Why then are so many rights taken away due to
other students behavior? Safety is suppose to be paid for when
paying tuition. However, in more cases than not, our colleges
lack the power or even the care
to do something about these
situations.
Not only is abuse a problem in our universities and colleges
across the United States a problem, but so are rapes. A study by
the National Victim Center in 1992 reported that one in four
women on college campuses have been raped or suffered attempted
rape.
Our children are at great danger while many colleges, like MATC,
are doing nothing about it.
