text: Graduated in 2004; so not too long ago as I'd like to think that my experience is still relevant. I'm rather critical of your statement that what I said was "dumb" when let's see... if your daughters came along, say in the 1970s, that putting them now around 40 years of age they'd know a thing or two themselves and *might* just agree that many Alaskans have their heads in the sand about these types of crimes. Bear attacks and moose tramplings make headlines for days every time one happens. Yet hundreds of rapes a year don't get enough coverage to make it clear to this generation that the risk factors are real and people get horribly hurt and traumatized, it's beyond sad. Just saying!
