Ep 28: Crimes at UMass Amherst / Keeping Students Safe on Campus

After a short hiatus, I am back! This week we will discuss crimes on campus at UMass Amherst from the 1990's when I attended to today. Please note that these crimes depict cases of sexual assault. If this would be upsetting please skip this episode as there is some great content ahead! We will also discuss the UMass campus response to these crimes, ask the question "can they do more?", and discuss the systemic issues surrounding these cases.

There's lots here to unpack!
