1. My senior year in college, there was a rape on campus on Halloween night

That was a very strange year, female students were suddenly afraid to go anywhere alone at night. I remember seeing lone girls running from place to place - and when I had an evening lab two friends would walk me there so neither of them had to walk back alone. Guys signed up to walk female students home from the library at night - so of course there was a rumor that the perp might be among them. I remember hearing that they finally caught the guy when I was at an end-of-year gathering at my professor's house. It was a small school - and I don't think these incidents were that prevalent then, or at least we didn't hear about them.
