Sexual violence is a serious issue, universities and colleges are no exception. According to the anti-sexual violence website RAINN (rainn.org), sexual violence in educational institutions is prevalent on campuses. Rainn also states that thirteen percent of all students experience rape or sexual assault through physical force, violence or incapacitation (among all graduate and undergraduate students). Among graduate and professional students, 9.7% of females and 2.5% of males experience rape or sexual assault through physical force, violence, or incapacitation.

“When we were here in 2018, this place was not full. There were not students waiting outside the door who could not get in,” Texas gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke said. “And here it’s what’s different. It’s the same candidate, so I know it’s not about me. I’m in the same political party, I know it’s not about the party. And by the way, Republican, Democrat, Independent, no me importa. The differences between us do not matter.”

In an auditorium full of emotions and people, O’Rourke visited Dallas College at the El Centro Campus on Oct. 3. The Democrat challenging Republican incumbent Greg Abbott was invited by the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) club.
