Students hope to soon officially launch a University chapter of Help Save the Next Girl, a national organization founded by Gil and Dan Harrington to raise awareness for missing persons and violence against women. They founded the organization in memory of their daughter, Morgan Harrington, a Virginia Tech student who was abducted and killed in Charlottesville in 2009.

With the ongoing investigation into Hannah Graham’s disappearance, we have had to process a lot of information and a lot of emotion. The speculation whirling around what information we have is overwhelming, and the unanswered questions agonizing. And in these difficult times, we desperately look for someone to blame.

A corrupt argument has circulated since the disappearance of our young student, Hannah Graham. The argument is that Graham might have averted the sad fate that we now presume, if only she’d behaved differently. Those who make this argument have their own characteristically narrow notion of how a young person should behave. If a student should take one step — even briefly or unintentionally — beyond that notion of appropriate behavior, then they must accept responsibility for what befalls them.

With the ongoing investigation into the disappearance of Hannah Graham, students, administrators and faculty have all become increasingly worried about the relative safety of our Grounds and of the greater Charlottesville area. As reasonable a concern as this is — and as terrifying as Hannah’s disappearance has been — some have unfairly placed blame for a perceived unsafe environment on the University.

As a female student that frequents the Downtown Mall, I consider the disappearance of Hannah Graham to be particularly unnerving. I’ve spent this past week contemplating — as I am sure many women on Grounds have — how safe I am in Charlottesville. Honestly, I’m surprised at how little The Cavalier Daily has published on the subject of student safety in the areas of Charlottesville surrounding the University.

The United States has a number of frightening statistics. One in four Americans are obese; one in five Americans’ deaths are related to tobacco; one in four American children live below the poverty line; and the most frightening of all to a teenage girl — one in four American women will be sexually assaulted on a college campus. Because sexual assault is such a touchy subject, for many years this was information that was not publicly discussed and that girls were too embarrassed to admit. Things have changed, however, through a recent outburst of support for women speaking up for their rights. Social media such as Tumblr, Twitter and other various sites have become increasingly tolerant and supportive of women speaking out against the insecurity they felt throughout their time in college. Celebrities have even participated in the outcry for fair treatment of women across the United States. It has taken some time, but colleges all across the nation are beginning to follow suit.
