speechless
due to the nature of my job, what happened in the dorms over spring break no doubt would have had an effect on us no matter who. the fact that this person happened to be on our staff more than 3/4 of this past semester only makes the situation worse. this person went into 3 rooms throughout the residence halls and installed clocks with surveillance cameras in order to watch female residents (one...
