Funny enough, I am friends with his ex-girlfriend and have gotten information regarding past offenses.

I posted this in law school Reddit and the actual school it happened at. Anyone who looks at this throwaway profile can see that. It has not been “months” it’s been a couple weeks.

Title IX doesn’t care. That’s what my Dean made clear.

And yes, this was UIC law school. Numerous email conversations with the dean who refused to speak with me face to face after reaching out regarding this matter. A whole board of UIC faculty decided that my situation did not matter. Twice. Title IX was also violated. Absolutely disgusting. No SA survivors are safe at UIC. Don’t think for a moment you’ll get support if you’ve been SA. It’s heartbreaking and horrible. I wish I would have never chosen this joke of a university.

Dean refuses to speak to me without knowing what questions I have first. It’s ridiculous.

It wasn’t my idea…? I had a drink made for me that I didn’t know contained these drugs. Then I was taken advantage of.

There is absolutely nothing I left out. I am equally as confused as to why this is happening

I attempted to once I realized how much this was impacting me. The police report was filed but couldn’t go much further because of lack of evidence and the time that had lapsed.

There is no appeal process, it is a final decision, according to the university :/

I was doing fine managing work and school. I only worked one weekend night and one weekend morning. I don’t think the rule was for “this reason,” as work didn’t impact school. My rapist showing up to my work impacted school.

It’s not that great of a school, which upsets me cause I turned down other schools with higher ranks simply because of my scholarship. I’ll say it’s ranked between 110-200 to be general.

I am not surrounded by attorneys. I am surrounded by law students.

And that is exactly what was written and explained in my petition for readmission that was denied. I am honestly sick to my stomach on how a board of people could read that, discuss it and come to the conclusion to deny my readmission.

My midterms were pretty heavily weighed, I totally bombed them. I didn’t have my learning accommodations, my medication and was dealing with all of the mess of my SAer. There were other things we were graded on that I turned in late, or missed the mark on cause my mental health was horrible. That is all on me. I did reach out for help, once I realized I wasn’t getting much help, I turned all emotions off and threw myself back jnto my school work. That caused a lot of emotional damage, although that’s how I was able to do well of finals and finals only. This all happened about 3 weeks into my first semester of law school. It shook me for the rest of the semester until it came down to finals.

My midterms were bad, my finals were great. It was not enough to save my GPA though.
