[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read this thread yesterday and then I went to work last night.  I'm female.  I teach a graduate class at UMD.  It's mostly adults.

At 10pm last night class ended and the students started to leave.  I was shutting down the classroom.  The last student--a man, walked out the door.  About 2 sec later, he walked back in and asked me if I was okay walking to my car myself or if I would like him to stay and walk me to my car.

I'm faculty and am able to park directly outside the building so I told him I was fine.  The building is on the quad and even though it was 10pm, I knew it would still be alive with college kids.

On my drive home, I couldn't help but smile.  A man extended a nice gesture to me and showed concern that I might not feel safe walking to my car.  It's basic human kindness and I haven't seen that in so long that it made me smile.[/quote]

Fake news!  UMD doesn't have a Quad, it has a Mall, and the Mall isn't well-populated after 10pm.  There is almost no parking anymore adjacent to buildings on the Mall.

There has been one murder on campus a few months ago, and at least two faculty members have been raped on campus in the past 20 years, despite over 200 security cameras monitoring campus.
