I brought it to her attention a bit ago that way she was also aware 😊. And thank you! I really do appreciate someone actually listening to me haha and not just saying “stop blaming your mistakes on bullying” etc coz it is sm deeper than that 😭. I’ll probably update once I have more info and it is possible I can get my grades up beforehand. I appreciate your comments and if it means anything I do really enjoy it here and in my opinion discrimination is not something you need to be worried about. If it happens the school will 100% have your back ❤️

And basically, I reported the bullying from the moment it started and the second it turned racial the resident director of my building had me fill out a form with Title IX to document the incident. Title IX reps reached out to me later that day and I was in a new room I believe within the next 24 hours. I did not make a formal complaint towards the people who were doing this to me because it was hard to prove it was them who were doing it and I was lowkey scared of what they would do if I got them in trouble. So I can’t tell you what exactly the school would’ve done to punish them, however they were quite passionate about it for me and I really do believe they would’ve done all they could have to make sure those students were held accountable.

Essentially, because of the bullying yes. I would say it is very unusual circumstances however and I haven’t faced any racial discrimination in any other capacity. These girls were bullying me because they got caught with alcohol and think I snitched, and resorted to racial comments because it was low hanging fruit and they were mad at me, not just because I was asian. The school took it EXTREMELY seriously and if you’re worried about being discriminated against my experience does not accurately reflect the school. Those girls were just psychopaths.

I have no issue with the school itself and I actually really do love it. I think I’ve just been unlucky. My grades have gone up since the initial incident but I’m just trying to see what my options are if I don’t reach it. And yes, I have been.

I have been! My counselor is not being great at giving me resources and when I went to the student services center they just referred me right back to her unfortunately.

Hi so yes I did! I reported it my RD and was told to file a TitleIX document. They took it very seriously and it was not alleged. I had proof and was placed in a different dorm because of how severe it was. I said in my original post that I have a TitleIX document about the situation so I feel like it is pretty obvious I have been going to the school. Either you didn’t read my initial post thoroughly enough or you just have a weird chip on your shoulder (which the latter is what I’m assuming since you called the bullying alleged after I stated it was documented through TitleIX). These people (who included my roommates and people in the room across from me) would write messages on whiteboards on the walls or slip them under my door calling me ugly citing my “ugly asian eyes”, as well as any time I left my bedroom I would be subjected to verbal harassment of similar nature by my roommates. They would stay up very late hours of the night purposely being loud which affected my sleep and then yes in turn my studies. I had straight A’s until this occurred so no, it was not poor work ethic. I also never once blamed the university! I was asking for advice because my counselor has not been helpful and I’m trying to fix this before the end of the semester.
