I'm not used to starting things, but - people need to be aware. She has corporate experience, and she knows people can be fired for hate speech. The situation is a bit different for a student office, but not so much. If someone spoke like that to a client, someone who came to us in distress, that would be beyond the pale. So we're doing something about it.
Also, the fact is, we're not currently equipped to handle title 9 cases when we get that, and that is a disservice. Luckily, today we started talking with an attorney who's also working on campus, who has experience in that field. If we could have another voice in our court, I would be so glad.
There's a real chance that I'll be the next director, here. And our current director is amazing, she's got a whole set of expansion plans, and I can already see the legacy that she'll have after she graduates. We're collaborating on events and developing a plan to educate our interns, and maybe. maybe. Maybe the first thing I initiate, to shape our office, will be an insistance on compassion.
anyway I'm watching this show Nirvana in Fire / Lang Ya Bang / 琅琊榜, and I'm sure I'll do a dedicated post sometime soon bc it's great, but just now one character escaped an attempted assault and went straight to the emperor, and it looked hairy for a minute but everyone showed up and testified and brought evidence to support her, and when the emperor realised, he turned on the main conspirator, shouting that "if that had happened and Nihuang was harmed, death would not be punishment enough!"
i just. have so many feelings about justice???????
